Washington DC EDIT: There are only 50 stars on the flag - count them. The last was added in 1960. Of the 'states' listed here, the two not represented by stars are 39.Puerto Rico, and 52.Washington DC. These are not states, but are often listed with the states as being 'jurisdictions'.

The first US flag had 13 stars, which represented the original 13 colonies.

It represents the blood of Turkish people died during the independence war of Turkey.

The flag on the left is the 'Lion Rampant' which is the old Royal flag of Scotland. The flag on the right is the Scottish National flag also known as the 'Saltire' or St Andrews Cross. Sorry, don't know what happened to the picture.

The U.S. flag had 38 stars from July 4, 1877 until July 4, 1890.

The name of the flag of England or Great Britain, is the Union Jack. It was adopted as their flag in 1801 and features the Cross of Saint Andrew, the Cross of Saint Patrick and the Cross of Saint George as its design.

no

American flags do not hang off cranes unless someone died at that sight and they want people to remember them. Similar to what fire fighters did a WTC.

If by hanging you actually mean why is there a flag on top of a crane, then that is a different answer. They usually fly a flag at the top of construction cranes to get an idea of wind conditions and direction which is very important when you are lifting a heavy object high up in the air.

No, the Confederate flag does not represent and never has represented racism. It is a symbol of southern heritage, representing freedom, states rights, individual responsibility, and resistance to an out of control federal government.

It may be true that some racists have used the Confederate flag, but racists also wave the American flag. Consider this: No slave ship ever sailed from a Confederate port or under a Confederate flag. On the contrary, virtually every American slave ship was from either New York or one of the New England states and they all sailed under the United States Flag. Also, at the time of the American Civil War, slavery had been practiced in every state and colony in America and was still being practiced in several northern states, under the Stars and Stripes, even during the War Between the States.

Ulysses S. Grant, commanding general of the United States Army during the Civil War was a slave holder. Robert E. Lee, commander of the Confederate Army, was against slavery. The Confederate constitution outlawed the slave trade and Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, proposed a plan to end slavery altogether. There were more free blacks, and also more abolitionists, in the South than in the North. Also, tens of thousands of black soldiers fought for the Confederate States of America in a war which they considered a second American revolution, "War for Southern Independence."

Unfortunately racist groups have used the Confederate flag in recent years, but those same groups, especially the Ku Klux Klan, have historically used the American flag for a much longer period of time.

The truth is, neither the American Flag nor the Confederate Flag is racist. If people who are racists fly either flag, that does not mean the flag itself represents racism.

EDIT: the answer above ignores the fact that the Confederate Constitution specifically protected slavery - Article I Section 9(4) states: "No bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law denying or impairing the right of property in negro slaves shall be passed."

There is no official meaning to the folds of the flag. It provides a dignified ceremonial touch that distinguishes folding a flag from folding an ordinary object such as a bedsheet and because it results in a visually pleasing, easy to handle shape.

Many variations of folding ceremonies and specific meanings assigned to the thirteen folds in the process were adopted by different patriotic and religious interests but have no bearing on the reason for the folding of the flag.

There is no such thing as a Jewish flag.

The State of Israel has Israeli national symbols such as a flag that draw from Jewish inspirations. It is very similar to how there is no such thing as a Lutheran flag, but the cross on the Swedish flag is representative of how Lutheranism is the dominant religion in that country. The modern Israeli flag was created by David Wolffsohn in order to create a flag to represent the Zionist Congress and the Yishuv in Ottoman Palestine.

it had a wonderful economy

The colors of the rings in the Olympic flag do not represent any continent or country. The colors represent the colors found in the flags of the nations that compete in the Olympic Games.

Thirteen, the top and bottom stripes are red

A diver down flag, or scuba flag, is a flag used on the water to indicate that there is a diver below. Two styles of flag are in use. Internationally, the code flag alfa/alpha, which is white and blue, is used to signal that the vessel has a diver down and other vessels should keep well clear at slow speed. In North America it is conventionally red with a white stripe from the upper left corner to the lower right corner.

The Nazi flag represents oppression and the killing of different groups of people. The flag may not have done those things but they remind people of them.

It is illegal to fly the Nazi flag in Germany, or to display other Nazi symbols. When Germans were permitted to run their country again after occupation by the Allies wwas nominally ended, those who took control had been anti-Nazis, so they had no difficulty banning Nazi symbols as part of the process of assuring the victors that Germany would not do that again.

There are 50 unless a technical answer is required in which case the answer is 49 Flags and a single pennant. The State flag of Ohio does not qualify as a flag because of the shape.

Despite the proliferation of the story that Betsy Ross sewed the first United States flag, historians can find no evidence to support this assertion. It is well documented that Betsy Ross did sew flags, among other things, but there is is no proof that she sewed THE flag. Even so, many teachers continue to tell elementary school children that Betsy Ross did sew the first flag, as if it were a verifiable fact.

The white stars on a field of blue represent the three additional stars on the American Flag as Tennessee was the 16th state admitted to the union. They also represent the three Grand Divisions of Tennessee-East, Middle and West. The Blue Stripe on the end of the flag represents the Mississippi River, however, it probably should have been placed on the opposite end of the flag. Red symbolizes courage for the 30,000 men who volunteered for the Mexican War, when Gov. Aaron Brown only requested 2800.

when the flag is only half way up,it is called flying at "half staff".(The staff is the flagpole.)This is done to honor someone important who has died.

THE UNION IS AT THE HEAD AND OVER THE LEFT SHOULDER!!

The importance of the Indian flag is seen in the fact that it is regarded as one of the national symbols. The flag was adopted on July 22, 1947 by the constituent assembly.Ê

In four sections surrounding the shield are representations of the states main industries: Agriculture, mining, manufacturing and navigation. The cornucopia and pile of lead represent farm products and minerals.
