When the Confederate States was formed, a committee was formed and a design was chosen which featured seven stars in a blue union with three bars--two of red between a white one. This was known as the Stars and Bars. In the heat and dust of battle, the Stars and Bars looked too much like the Union's Stars and Stripes and the Confederate Congress adopted a new flag with a union featuring the square battle flag of the Army of northern Virginia and a white field. This white field looked too much like a flag of surrender so a new flag was designed which added a red bar to the white field.
No, they were known as the Confederate Union. They had a whole different flag as well.
The conflict between Barbara Frietchie and the Confederate soldiers arose during the Civil War when General Stonewall Jackson's troops marched through Frederick, Maryland. Frietchie, a staunch Union supporter, defiantly displayed the Union flag from her window, which angered the Confederate soldiers. In a symbolic act of defiance, she challenged them to shoot her rather than desecrate the flag, highlighting her commitment to the Union cause. This encounter embodies the tension between loyalty to the Union and the Confederate invasion of Northern territories.
The rebel flag the flag of the south.
