The Americans have a terrible habit of disregarding history, they re-write it constantly in their films and books, then argue with the rest of the world when they're disagreed with instead of actually doing any proper research. The US has stabbed many other countries in the back repeatedly, assisting the Nazis in starting WWII by supplying them with most of the oil needed to fuel the Blitzkreig on Poland and then sitting back and selling weapons to all sides for as long as possible. They didn't even declare war on the Germans, they waited for the Germans to do it. The worst part is that they now insist on strutting around, crowing about how they saved the planet from fascists. The US education system is substandard and the vast majority of Americans are very ignorant. Ignorant to the point of believing scripture because it's easier to wrap an incapable brain around scripture than it is science. Wherever corporate America has taken hold in other countries it has been to the detriment of the local population. The worst part about the USA is that it exports the very worst of it's shallow, greedy and facile culture, from insincere, image-based politics, to fast food, cosmetic surgery and the imposition of it's idea of democracy upon countries that were, until the Americans arrived, stable. Truly the worst nation on the planet, it's like the stupidest kid in the class has been given the keys to the school bus and now he's out to prove how big and tough he is by running everybody else over.
OK i was born here and i remember constantly being told USA is the best i even remember my first 4th of July and asking what it was about and i found it out it was independence from great Britain and asked so we were British at one point and everyone was quick to say no see the problem with america is they cant even accept the nation that made theirs the UK see not everyone here is blind to how corrupt it is even the American culture is fake i go to high school and at least once every week someone here says something about how American they are that's what american culture is being blind to other nations and bragging. so i looked back at my family history and found out i was British so i decided to subscribe to that culture i even learned a British accent no not because i like it my favorite accent is the new York city accent. i still live here and i see right through it all of it i see through the bible and i hope others here will eventually see through it to.
Fun fact: the design for the current flag of the USA (50 stars) was created by Robert Heft, a 17 year old high schooler at the time. It was part of a school project and is a pretty cool story considering that the teacher originally gave the Heft a lower grade on the project so I recommend you research it if you haven't heard it before.
Hutch2Much Yeah it would be relatively easy as well. Just add Puerto Rico, Guam, and the American Samoa or the Mariana Islands or the Virigin Islands as states. However, other than Puerto Rico, Guam, Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Mariana Islands barely have people.

Actually, the colonists technically didn't win. When the brits came back for round two, parliment got squeemish with all the bloodshed and stripped the king of his power so they could stop the war. If they hadn't of usurped the king, we'd be flying the union jack, sipping tea and eating crumpets, and saying things like "cheerio", "right right", "jolly good ole chap", "be back in a fortnight", "arse", playing cricket, rugby, and "football"(soccer), and our pasttimes wound include polo, fox hunts, morris dancing, etc.
I think it was more of a reference of stealing land from other countries (California from Mexico, Texas from itself) through annexation, not as much stealing land from natives.

Fun fact: the 50 star spangled flag was made by a high schooler in Ohio who heard that Alaska and Hawaii would be a state so he made his 50 star flag from a old 48 star flag from his grand parents or parents attic or basement and turned it into the flag that everyone knows now and he called the White House 18 times and sended 21 messages to the White House until one fine morning Presisdent Eisenhower: hello is thisrobert heft? We have received your flag and we would like it to be our country flag and so he was invited in washington to see his star on the White House or something like that he original grade was b- but it was turned into a A Edited some lines and added some more detail in the history Another edit: thank you to all who gave me some more details
The most reasonable guess is Puerto Rico eventually becoming the 51st State. What was the reason the Canton for the Stars was placed in the upper left corner? Why not center it? Or make it a vertical bar along the entire left edge?

Thank You. I am so greatful that this was on my recommendation. I am from India. Btw, I really like it the fact that the first 13 states remained on the stripes without any addiction. That is nice.
One time I drew the US flag in history class and showed it to my science teacher in the next period. I couldn’t fit all 50 stars, but he told me that it was okay that I only could put 48 because of Alaska and Hawaii
Neat little thing to note here, because the 48 star flag didn’t happen until July 1912 the American flag present on the RMS Titanic would have been the 46 star pattern flag
I’m sure that would be the least of the state’s problems at that point. They’d still have to make laws, form a government, draft a constitution, all that good stuff.
Very informative video. I never really though about it but it’s kinda cool that the US flag changes based on the number of states. I wonder if other flags do the same, gonna have to google it later.
FRANTIC Vlog A national flag that becomes uncomfortable. Because it makes you more uncomfortable than the Nazis, you want to change it. American ethnic massacres and black discrimination. What is different from Nazis? Americans criticize the Nazis without learning their own country history, Russia was also genocidal at the time of World War I
-huruzuberugu fweburazu- What? That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. The US evolved and the NAZIs were more recent. Why should we not attack NAZIs because we killed natives about 200 years ago. It’s okay when Muslims and the Soviet Union do it though.

Not me. I drew 50 tiny circles and nobody cared.

As a former Elementary Student, the stars are indeed our sworn enemy
@Maximus Yagdulas lmfao
Fun fact: the 50 star spangled flag was made by a high schooler in Ohio who heard that Alaska and Hawaii would be a state so he made his 50 star flag from a old 48 star flag from his grand parents or parents attic or basement and turned it into the flag that everyone knows now and he called the White House 18 times and sended 21 messages to the White House until one fine morning
Presisdent Eisenhower: hello is thisrobert heft? We have received your flag and we would like it to be our country flag and so he was invited in washington to see his star on the White House or something like that he original grade was b- but it was turned into a A

The most reasonable guess is Puerto Rico eventually becoming the 51st State.
What was the reason the Canton for the Stars was placed in the upper left corner? Why not center it? Or make it a vertical bar along the entire left edge?

I was wondering the pattern of the placement of the stars. Glad he cleared that up. Some of those random ones look weird as hell.
That moment when you realize that the stars on the flag are basically a scoreboard for places we’ve conquered.
Exactly. Us Americans are tough and we’re not afraid to show it 😁
It was supposed to be meaningful but have you ever wonder where all that land comes from ? Beside from the old states splitting up of course ?
+fat dog Mickey cooling magma from the pre-Cambrian era in earths history. Then over millions of years as the old supercontinent of Pangea broke up, and eventually North America came into existence through this process. The USA is included among the countries that are on this continent, and that’s where its land comes from.
LoveIsArt Perhaps we're, too proud to show it...

One time I drew the US flag in history class and showed it to my science teacher in the next period. I couldn’t fit all 50 stars, but he told me that it was okay that I only could put 48 because of Alaska and Hawaii
Nah Hawaii exists, but Alaska is just a shipping dock
so thats why my classmates joke about the US not having actual 50 states

Neat little thing to note here, because the 48 star flag didn’t happen until July 1912 the American flag present on the RMS Titanic would have been the 46 star pattern flag
It looked best at 48 stars. They were aligned very neatly.
I totally agree. The 48 stars are so satisfyingly distributed.
It’s obvious that it was meant to be, that is how the flag should look.
@@ParumPirum so remove 2 states
The appearance is not the thing that matters, there are 50 for our 50 states

The 50 looks good.
Great video Peter. Creative use of the paper and good editing.
Came to learn more about the flag, stayed for the satisfaction of sliding the states into the flag and turning them into stars.
A perfect square of stars is more satisfying than I thought it would be.

If a state is brought into the union on July 5th, they have to wait a whole year for them to be recognized on the flag. Awesome.
I’m sure that would be the least of the state’s problems at that point. They’d still have to make laws, form a government, draft a constitution, all that good stuff.
I don’t like your profile picture.
They wouldn't though. They would do it before or on the 4th
Lol
Very informative video. I never really though about it but it’s kinda cool that the US flag changes based on the number of states. I wonder if other flags do the same, gonna have to google it later.

Except for Wyoming and Colorado, those were probably easy
Forget about cutting it, changing the position of the stars everytime must be a pain.
and when you have to make them smaller
Ah 1818, the most geometricly satisfying amount of stars on the flag
Wait so the circle arrangement in the canton wasn’t official?
Correct. Some people put them in a circle, others put them in a grid, and there were other shapes too.
Illest Visionz that was during the colonial times
It was, George Washington ordered Betsy Ross to do it
No, Betsy Ross flag was just a myth/folklore pretty much. Never used during the Revolutionary War.
Paul A The circle in the canton was used in the revolutionary war, when it became an independent nation, the square was made
Nicely done!
FRANTIC Vlog A national flag that becomes uncomfortable. Because it makes you more uncomfortable than the Nazis, you want to change it. American ethnic massacres and black discrimination. What is different from Nazis? Americans criticize the Nazis without learning their own country history, Russia was also genocidal at the time of World War I
-huruzuberugu fweburazu- What? That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. The US evolved and the NAZIs were more recent. Why should we not attack NAZIs because we killed natives about 200 years ago. It’s okay when Muslims and the Soviet Union do it though.
