It closely resembles the British East India Company (BEIC) flag of the same era, and an argument holds that the BEIC flag indeed inspired the design.
The origins of the flag's design are unclear. Although it has never had any official status, it was used throughout the American Revolutionary War by George Washington and formed the basis for the design of the first official United States flag. The Grand Union Flag, displayed here, has historically been referred to as the "First National Flag". The 48-star version went unchanged for 47 years, the longest time the flag went unmodified until July 4, 2007, when the current 50-star flag broke the record.Īt the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776, the United States had no official national flag. The flag has been changed 26 times since the new, 13-state union adopted it. The blue canton continues to be used as a jack, however, by various federally-owned vessels, including those of the Coast Guard, Military Sealift Command, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. United States warships now display as a jack, the Culpepper Ensign, which is displayed here. This part of the national flag can stand alone as a maritime flag called the Union Jack which served as the United States jack on warships from 1777 until 2002. Nicknames for the flag include "the Stars and Stripes", "Old Glory", and "the Star-Spangled Banner".īecause of its symbolism, the starred blue canton is called the "union". The 50 stars on the flag represent the 50 states and the 13 stripes represent the original Thirteen Colonies that rebelled against the British crown and became the first states in the Union.
