IV. Happy Flag Day!

On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress adopted the resolution:

That the flag of the United States shall be of thirteen stripes of alternate red and white, with a union of thirteen stars of white in a blue field, representing the new constellation.”

The exact origin of “Flag Day” is in dispute, but began being celebrated in the late 1880s.
