We are writing quotes on this video expaling what each part of The Star Spangled Banner means.
The Americans fought against the British in 1812. The cause of the war was British didn't want America to trade with France. The Americans got angry because of impressment.
The British were trying to destory Fort McHenry but they failed and America won their freedom from Britain.
Francis Scott Key went to go rescue his friend from one of the British ships because his friend was held hostage. The battle was about to begin and the British didn't want Francis Scott Key to go warn the Americans that the British were going to attack so they kept him hostage. He watched the British attempt to destory Fort McHenry and as he saw the Americans winning, he wrote a poem and it became to National Anthem.
The Star Spangled Banner became the National Anthem on March 3, 1931. The tune to the Star Spangled Banner came a popular drinking song that they sang in the 1800's.
