The first American flag, also known as the Betsy Ross flag, is the most debated flag in American history.
The flag was first adopted in 1777 following a decree from congress that called for a combination of stars and stripes to be used in the flag with very little guidance other than that. The flag features a circle of 13 stars on a blue background and 13 stripes alternating in red and white to represent the 13 colonies.
