The national flag of the United States, often referred to as the American flag or the U.S. flag, consists of thirteen horizontal stripes, alternating red and white, with a blue rectangle in the canton bearing fifty small, white, five-pointed stars arranged in nine offset horizontal rows, where rows of six stars alternate with rows of five stars. The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 U.S. states, and the 13 stripes represent the thirteen original British colonies that won independence from Great Britain in the American Revolutionary War.
Nicknames for the flag include the Stars and Stripes, Old Glory, and the Star-Spangled Banner. The Pledge of Allegiance and the holiday, Flag Day, are dedicated to it. The number of stars on the flag is increased as new states join the United States, and the last adjustment was made in 1960, following the admission of Hawaii into the union.
This is a representation of the American Flag which has been meticulously built and charred to represent a tattered or otherwise rustic appearance.
