The flag of Texas is the official flag of the U.S. state of Texas. It is well known for its prominent single white star which gives the flag its commonly-used name: "Lone Star Flag". This lone star, in turn, gives rise to the state's nickname: "The Lone Star State". The flag, flown at homes and businesses statewide, is highly popular among Texans and is treated with a great degree of reverence and esteem within Texas.

The flag of the United States of America, often referred to as the American flag or the U.S. flag, is the national flag of the United States.

(Pirate Flag)

The origins of Jolly Roger flag in its most common form known today (black flag with white human skull and crossbones below it) started being used in early 1710-1720s by three famous pirate captains - "Black Sam" Bellamy (who was believed to have become one of the most richest pirate captains in history after only 1 year of sea raids on merchant ships), Edward England (captain from 1717 to 1720) and John Taylor (who led the vote for removing Edward England from the position of pirate captain).

There are several versions that explain origin of the Czech Republic flag colors. One of the legends say that Duke Lech once saw white eagle on the red evening sky, so he decided to adopt it on the flag.

The Czech Republic flag colors are borrowed from the coat of arms of Bohemia. The blue triangle was added to the Czech flag in 1920 in order to differentiate it from the flag of Poland. It is said that the blue color is representing the State of Moravia.

There is an important symbolic meaning behind the colors of the Czech flag. The white color stands for the people of the Czech Republic and their peaceful nature and honesty. Red color means courage, valor and patriotism of the nation. The blue symbolizes vigilance, truth, loyalty and perseverance.

The National Flag of Germany was officially adopted on May 23, 1949.

The National Flag of Germany features three equal horizontal bands of black (top), red, and gold. These colors have played an important role in German history and can be traced back to the medieval banner of the Holy Roman Emperor, which had a black eagle with red claws and beak on a gold background. The black, red, and gold were taken from the uniforms of German soldiers during the Napoleonic Wars. Germans associate the colors of the modern flag with freedom and unity since they were adopted by the first attempt in the united German republic.

The red stripe represents the Spaniards that joined in the quest for Independence and the blood of the national heroes. The emblem-shield symbolizes the Aztec heritage. According to legend, the gods had advised the Aztecs that the place where they should establish their city was to be identified when they saw an eagle, perched on a prickly pear tree, devouring a serpent.

The flag of Poland (Polish: flaga Polski) consists of two horizontal stripes of equal width, the upper one white and the lower one red. The two colors are defined in the Polish constitution as the national colors. A variant of the flag with the national coat of arms in the middle of the white fess is legally reserved for official use abroad and at sea. A similar flag with the addition of a swallow-tail is used as the naval ensign of Poland.

An Eagle and scroll are symbolized on the Air Force flag. A meaningful alternative to some of the company’s other flags; it features the Air Force coat of arms, highlighted among an ultramarine blue background. The 13 white stars represent the original colonies, while the outstretched wings of the bald eagle frame three of these, representing the National Defense establishment’s three branches – the Army, Air Force, and Navy. The flag and symbol was approved in 1951 and remains the same today.

Prior to 1956, the Army was the only military branch that was without a flag to represent the entire service.  On June 14th of that year, the flag of the US Army was unveiled to the public.  The flag features a white background, with “United States Army” written on a red scroll and the original War Office seal above it in blue, with the year of the Army’s creation, “1775,” at the bottom in blue.

As other military flags do, the Coast Guard flag has an eagle as its centerpiece. It has a white background with a banner, “United States Coast Guard” printed on top, while a shield on the eagle’s breast features a blue chief, set over vertical white and red stripes. The date 1790 is still printed on the emblem; this is the date the Revenue Cutter Service, which later became the Coast Guard, was founded. Formed in 1915, the Coast Guard has retained the same imagery.

The Marine Corps flag features an eagle, globe, and anchor insignia. Approved in 1868, the emblem became part of the official seal of the Marine Corp after final approval by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1954.

It was then that the bald eagle, native to North America, replaced the original crested eagle. The emblem stands for the dedicated Marines that represent pride, honor, integrity, bravery and tradition.

The flag of the U.S. Navy also features an eagle; its wings are outspread to suggest it is defending a ship at sea. The US Navy emblem includes a circular rope surrounding the central insignia, while the words United States Navy are presented in blue letters on a yellow scroll and battle streamers represent major battles in history.
