Thanks for your comment. I made this video two years ago and have no idea where I got the info, but I do remember double checking the source and confirming it.
The 13 stripes signify the 13 american colonies, and the flag comes from the british east india company. The original had the british flag in the top right corner. Can you send me a link on where you got your info from? Thanks.

Thanks for your comments. It's possible I just made an error. I did double check my facts from two different sources, but that doesn't mean one source didn't take it from the other wrong source. My memory from a year ago is not so good, but is it possible the state entered in 1912 and the star wasn't put on the flag till 1931? I hope so, for my sake! Hahah. Thanks again.
Great video! I've always wondered what the older constellations of stars looked like. But the 48th state entered the Union in 1912. Why do you list the 48th star as 1931?
The schooner Clotilde (or Clotilda) was the last known U.S. slave ship to bring slaves from Africa to the United States,arriving at Mobile Bay in autumn 1859 (some sources give July 9, 1860), with 110-160 slaves.The ship was a two-masted schooner with copper hull, 86 ft long by 23 ft (26x7 m), and it was burned and scuttled at Mobile Bay, soon after. The sponsors had arranged to buy slaves in Whydah, Dahomey on May 15, 1859.
