What Do The "Colors Of The USA Flag Mean?"

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The three main colors of American flag are Red, Blue and White.
    The Color Red is supposed to stand for valor and hardiness while blue represents perseverance, justice and vigilance; it is also the 'color of the Chief'. White on the other hand stands for innocence and purity. The Stripes were supposed to be representative of the rays that emanated from the sun while the stars were seen as being symbolic of the heavens; the highest place that a person could aim to reach. The flag also has 13 stripes which essentially talk of the 13 Original Colonies that signed the Declaration of Independence. The 50 stars that lie on a blue background are supposed to represent the 50 states that are part of present day America. In almost all of the publications that are made of the US flag, the Printing Office makes it clear that all the colors used are Pantone shades.
