The original "Stars and Stripes" flag had 13 stars.  The flag has been revised several times as new states were admitted to the union.  The revisions have given us flags with 15, 20, 21, 23, 24, 31, 35, 37, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, and currently 50 stars on the flag.

texas gained its independence from mexico with little/no help from the US so when they won they became their own country and then a little while later the US annexed texas making it a state. Basically it was one star of the Us flag that stood on its own, so its the Lonestar state, and their flag has one star on it.

It is a common urban legend that the Texas flag is the only state flag that is allowed to fly at the same height as the U.S. flag. Allegedly, Texas has this right inherently (as a former independent nation), or because it negotiated special provisions when it joined the Union (this version has been stated as fact on a PBS website). However, the legend is false. Neither the Joint Resolution for Annexing Texas to the United States nor the Ordinance of Annexation contain any provisions regarding flags. According to the United States Flag Code, any state flag can be flown at the same height as the U.S. flag. The U.S. flag must be on its right (the viewer's left), however.\n\n\nHope this helps :)

By United Nation policies, no one can "own" a piece of the moon. It is like the Star Registery in that it is not universally recognized. It is for novelty enjoyment only.

Abe Lincoln is on a 5 spot.  Eli Whitney is credited with inventing the cotton gin.  The stripes on the flag represent the bandages on all the soldiers and heroes that have been injured or killed while protecting and fighting for this great country.  You're welcome.

If the flag is drawn 60 by 30(2:1 ratio), then the various parts have areas as follows. (total area = 1800 square units)\n\nThe red of the cross of St George is of area 504 square units.\n(28%)\n\nThe red of St Patrick is in four pieces, two larger and two smaller, these respectively each having area 20√5 and 20√5-5; for a total of 80√5-10 ≈ 168.8854382 square units. \n(≈9.38%)\n\nThe blue of the cross of St Andrew is in eight pieces, four larger and four smaller. The larger pieces each have area (335-75√5)/2; the smaller each 445/4-30√5; giving a total blue area of 1115-270√5 ≈ 511.261646 square units.\n(≈28.4%)\n\nThat leaves the white portion of the flag with an area of about 615.9 square units.\n(≈34.21%)\n\n\n\nTo be exact...\nThe flag is red : white : blue in the proportions 494+80√5 : 191+190√5 : 1115-270√5 \n\n≈ 37.38% : 34.21% : 28.4%.

For a brief period, Texas was an independent country- fighting for independence from Mexico.  At that time they adopted the flag that would become their state flag once they joined the USA.  Their flag had one star as opposed the all the stars on the USA's flag.

Special care should be taken that no part of the flag touches the ground. The Flag is then carefully folded into the shape of a tri-cornered hat, emblematic of the hats worn by colonial soldiers during the war for Independence. In the folding, the red and white stripes are finally wrapped into the blue, as the light of day vanishes into the darkness of night. \n\n\nThis custom of special folding is reserved for the United States Flag alone. \n\nHow to fold the Flag\n\nStep 1\n\n\nTo properly fold the Flag, begin by holding it waist-high with another person so that its surface is parallel to the ground.\n\n\n\n\n\nStep 2\n\n\nFold the lower half of the stripe section lengthwise over the field of stars, holding the bottom and top edges securely.\n\n\n\n\n\nStep 3\n\n\nFold the flag again lengthwise with the blue field on the outside.\n\n\n\n\n\nStep 4\n\n\nMake a triangular fold by bringing the striped corner of the folded edge to meet the open (top) edge of the flag.\n\n\n\n\n\nStep 5\n\n\nTurn the outer (end) point inward, parallel to the open edge, to form a second triangle. \n\n\n\n\n\nStep 6\n\n\nThe triangular folding is continued until the entire length of the flag is folded in this manner. \n\n\n\n\nStep 7\n\n\nWhen the flag is completely folded, only a triangular blue field of stars should be visible.

I think the confederate flag represents a terrible part of america's history and those who fly the stars and bars should be looked at as traitors.  The confederacy stood for slavery yes, but more importantly it stood for a government that ceceeded from the United States to become their own country.

Just that a state.  There are atleast 2 states for each location in the Continental (USA). i.e. there is the United States (a Corporation of the District of Columbia) and then the United States of America, representing the Republic that was formed by our constitution.
