A '''flag''' is a cloth symbol, usually used for either signaling or identification. Though flags were first used to support military maneuvers, they quickly were adopted as the prime identification for nations. Nowadays, a flag is usually the most important patriotic symbol of a nation. The American flag has fifty [[star]]s and 13 stripes on it. The study of flags is known as [[vexillology]].
