Flags

There are 13 stripes on the American flag.

It looks the same as (at least) fifteen other states' flags. It's not really a flag... it's more of a blue banner with the state seal on it. It rates VERY low on the list of distinctive state flags. School children can't draw it easily. Almost NOBODY in Michigan (citizens or businesses) bothers to fly it. There is very little state pride shown for it.

yes .... the Students learn very young

50, Alaska and Hawaii both joined the US in 1959.

The Blue of the flag of Myanmar represents peace and endurance; red symbolizes courage and gallantry; and white stands for purity and honor.

There are also symbols and emblems on the flag. There is a cogwheel and some ears of rice which together represent the country's industry and agriculture, while also standing for the union of the workers and the peasant class. There are 14 stars above the 14 cogs, which symbolise the 14 states of Myanmar.

The German flag as we know it today was re-introduced when Germany received their independence from France, Britain, and the United States on May 23, 1949. East Germany was still under Soviet rule so they had a different flag than the German flag in the west. The flag originated in the beginning of the 19th century when Germans fought during the Napoleonic wars. The colors black, red, and gold were the colors on the uniforms the soldiers wore to fight. The first time the flag was raised was in 1832 during the Hambacher fest in Hambach, a town in Southern Germany. Today the town holds an annual festival called the Hambach black, red, and gold fest to celebrate the culture and history. The colors have remained the same and now represent unity, justice, and freedom. The words in the German National Anthem sung today include Germany's flag colors.

The colors on the Swedish flag mean: Yellow - Generosity Blue - Vigilance, Truth, Loyalty, Perseverance and Justice AnswerThe Colours are believed to be derived from the Coat of Arms of Sweden, the flag modelled on the Danish flag which Sweden gained independence from. The Coat of arms came into being in the 15th century under King Charles Knutsson. According to myth Eric IX (the Saint/Holy/Lawgiver) saw a yellow cross in the sky as he landed in Finland for the Swedish crusade. He adopted the cross against a blue background as his banner. The story is earlier than the Coat of Arms theory. Note:- Giving meaning to colours is a relatively modern phenomena (historically speaking) usually ascribed to ex colonial countries using their flag as a rallying call and generally wouldn't be used before the 19th century. Most modern applications of peace justice etc to older flags doesn't stand up to any investigation. The earlier answer that the colours of Sweden's flag represent Sun and Sand is sweet but naive and er... wrong.

It's the flag of st David. The patron saint of Wales. :)

Flag is Red background with yellow sun.

Red means bloodshed from Macedonians protecting their country throughout the centuries,

Yellow Sun means "New Sun on Liberty"

It represents the sun. Macedonia has been through a lot in it's history but continues to stay strong and fight therefore the red represents blood and the sun represents that it will always shine on Macedonia as mentioned in their powerful national anthem.

Don't understand your question? What flag are you referring to? Most courts display one or at the most two, flags. The state flag and the US flag.

Yes, the Latin Kings gang wears their flag on the left side of their front pocket. All People Nation gangs such as the Latin Kings, Vice Lords & many others, wear their flags to the left side.

the blue strips mean the two oceans the pacific and the Atlantic . and the white strip means a peaceful country with white skies and heart.

It depends. In some countries it is a distress signal, in some countries it is frowned upon (Australia for instance) while the Philippines military use the national flag upside down as a war flag (and is the only country to do so). In some instances (some international events!) flags are flown upside down because of ignorance or stupidity. This has been known to happen with the Union Jack, which, while it looks symmetrical, is not, and easy to hoist incorrectly.

There is not an actual reason as to why the bottom star on the Arkansas Flag is upside down. The three stars represent the number of nations that Arkansas was once territory of, aside from that there is no meaning of the star being upside down.

The Bear Flag Revolt took place in California, while Mexico still had control of it. While US and Mexico were feuding, John Fremont, a US army major, began encouraging the Americans living in Mexico's California to revolt. 33 people did, creating a flag for the "California Republic". The flag had a bear and a star on it, thus came the name "The Bear Flag Revolt".
