what means your country and/or state flag?post a pic of it if you want... i'll start
the green is the nature who exists in portugal
the red is the spilled blood as a result of the wars
the yellow globe is the representation of all discovers made by us
the castles are conquers of D. Afonso Henriques (1st king of portugal)
the 5 little white things are the 5 wounds for which Christ suffered
The green stripe represents fertility of Arab nations
and the black represents the defeat of enemies
the red stands for the blood of the defeated of enemy
and white symbolizes honor and purity

Don't forget to be awesome.
- Originally the stars represented 13 colonies. A star is added for each state.
There is no legally defined meaning for the design or colors, though.
Flag of Texas
- Blue stands for loyalty
- White for purity
- Red for bravery
- The Lone Star "represents ALL of Texas and stands for our unity as one for God, State, and Country."
Flag of the Confederate States of America
- Was designed to oppose Union blue.
- It looks cool. So there.
All 3 flags have been changed over and over again throughout history.
With the American flag, it changes when a state is added on (thank God we didn't add on Purto Rico - even though it's our territory - because it would have looked silly).
Also, if you've ever seen "Don't Tread on Me" it was used as an American flag during the American revolution.
The Texas flag has also been changed many times before.

Basically, Australians pinched the Union Jack from England, seeing as we are all from England in one way or another. Dumping convicts ftw!
The stars are for the 6 states. + we have a territory but they don't get a star so suck it.
I remember my dad telling me about that when I was younger. lol
And then it would always end with "Australians are nothing but British cowboys".
XD

my flag too... it was changed so many fucking times... for each king we had, one flag was added... we had about 300 kings or so (since 1143 until 1910 ).. there was some periods where there weren't any kings.. still, 300 must be about the average
