  • The Story of the Stars & Stripes
    The Story of the Stars & Stripes By the US Marine Corps The story of the origin of our national flag parallels the story of the origin of our country. As our country received its birthright from the peoples of many lands who were gathered on these shores to found a new nation, so did the pattern of the Stars and Stripes rise from several origins back in the mists of antiquity to become emblazoned on the standards of our infant Republic. The star is a symbol of the heavens and the divine goal to which man has aspired from time immemorial; the stripe is symbolic of the rays of light emanating from the sun. Both themes have long been represented on the standards of nations, from the banners of the astral worshippers of ancient Egypt and Babylon to the 12-starred flag of the Spanish Conquistadors under Cortez. Continuing in favor, they spread to the striped standards of Holland and the West Indian Company in the 17th century and to the present patterns of stars and stripes on the flags of several nations of Europe, Asia, and the Americas. The first flags adopted by our Colonial forefathers were symbolic of their struggles with the wilderness of a new land. Beavers, pine trees, rattlesnakes, anchors, and various like insignia with mottoes such as “Hope”, “Liberty”, “Appeal to Heaven” or “Don’t Tread on Me” were affixed to the different banners of Colonial America. The first flag of the colonists to have any resemblance to the present Stars and Stripes was the Grand Union flag, sometimes referred to as the “Congress Colors”.

    The virtual battle: Flags in Georgian marine paintings Barbara Tomlinson Abstract The 18th century saw the development of an English school of marine painting following the example of the Dutch in the previous century. When representing naval battles, artists needed to handle numerous technical details including the depiction of British squadronal colours, distin- guishing flags and signal flags. This paper examines selected actions painted by Samuel Scott (1701/2-1772), Nicholas Pocock (1741-1821), Thomas Whitcombe (c.1752-1827) and William Anderson (1757-1837) and ask - how accurate were these artists, how did they research their paintings, how did they display flags for dramatic effect and who was their intended audience? The resources of the National Maritime Museum’s collections used to illustrate this subject in- clude prints, drawings and documents. The British maritime victories of the sailing navy era were immortalized by contemporary artists. Originally a Dutch genre, by the middle of the 18th century, marine pictures were also produced by British painters who specialised in these scenes. I would like to consider the relationship between the reality and the representation with particular reference to the way the artist shows British flags, concentrating on some of the less well-known battles. One painter who took considerable pains to include accurate detail was Nicholas Po- cock. A sketchbook survives compiled by Pocock during the Battle of the Glorious 1st of June when he was able to observe the action directly from the frigate Pegasus. These small and indistinct views remind us that in contrast to the way vessels are shown in marine paintings, in reality, everything would have been much more spread out and much further away.

  • An Argument from Design
    Raising the Standard: An Argument from Design Tony Burton Abstract The creative process and principles informing the design of some special purpose and other flags lead to conclusions for flag design in general. The dynamics of metaphor and shape- shifting are considered. The scope for greater pageantry and innovation in flag design is explored. Current national flags of complex or awkward design present a challenge. Possible remedies are suggested. To paraphrase a famous utterance, the known delivers the unknown, and as at least one national flag of recent vintage demonstrates, the unknown can lead to an unforeseen, but serendipitous result. Among the many instances of how not to design a flag, how to is more worthwhile. Vexillologists have higher standards.

  • Flag of Defiance – the International Use of the Rhodesian Flag Following Udi
    FLAG OF DEFIANCE – THE INTERNATIONAL USE OF THE RHODESIAN FLAG FOLLOWING UDI BRUCE BERRY University of Pretoria ([email protected] ; +27 82 909 5829) Abstract The international response to Rhodesia’s Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) was to proclaim the colony to be in a state of rebellion, the government in Salisbury to be illegal, and to request the United Nations to apply sanctions against the ‘rebel regime’. The ensuing political impasse resulted in the need to promote a more distinctive national identity and the symbols to reflect this newfound independence. The first, and most obvious, change came with the adoption of a new national flag on the third anniversary of UDI on 11 November 1968. As the most visible symbol of post-UDI Rhodesia, the international use and display of the new flag became the subject of demonstration and controversy. This paper shows how the green and white Rhodesian flag came to highlight Rhodesia’s contested statehood when flown outside the country during the UDI period. Rhodesia’s new flag became a symbol of the country’s defiance, and the emotion it evoked, and continues to evoke, causes controversy even to this day. Keywords: Rhodesia, symbols, flags 1 1. INTRODUCTION After years of fruitless negotiations on the issue of independence, at 11 a.m. on 11 November 1965 (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month) Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith and his Cabinet signed a Proclamation of Independence from the British Parliament, whilst retaining loyalty to the person of the Monarch as the Queen of Rhodesia.1 The immediate response by the British Government to this Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) was to proclaim Rhodesia to be in a state of rebellion, the Government in Salisbury to be illegal and to request the United Nations to apply sanctions against the ‘rebel regime’.

  • Flags of Australian Territories
    -’-iqc 227 Jonathan Dixon: Flags of Australian Territories Abstract; Several different patterns have been proposed and/or used in flags for Australia's internal and external territories. This will be a historical overview of these flags, from Papua to the Cocos Islands. Since Federation in 1901, the flags of the territories of the Commonwealth of Australia have been quite varied. Unlike the state flags, which have followed the same basic pattern since they were established before Federation, the territories have adopted (or radically changed) their flags at many different times. The flags chosen reflect not only on the nature of the territories, but on the attitudes towards Australian flags of those making the decisions. Australia's territories can be classified as populated external territories, self-governing internal territories, and others which have ver\' limited populations and/or self-government. This last group, including the Jervis Bay Territor\" and offshore regions such as the Coral Sea Islands, do not have flags of their own, and it is often wrongly claimed that their flag is the Australian national flag. Of course, as territories of the Commonwealth, the national flag is used, but that is not at all the same thing. The differences between the flags of the other territories display the differences between the statuses of the territories, but a broader and more interesting picture is revealed when we also include the historical Australian territories in New Guinea. These flags from the start of the nineteenth centurt^ will be our focus as we discover that territorial flags have always not only been influenced by state and Commonwealth flags, but have also influenced moves to change them.

During what the present thesis calls the “crisis of Britishness” from 1964 to 1968, the British character of Canada was redefined and Britishness portrayed as something foreign or “other.” This post-British conception of Canada has been buttressed by historians depicting the British connection as a colonial hangover, an externally-derived, narrowly ethnic, nostalgic, or retardant force. However, Britishness, as a unique amalgam of hybrid identities in the Canadian context, in fact took on new and multiple meanings.

  • Flag Day – June 14 U.S. Flag Day. Other Countries Celebrate Their
    Flag Day – June 14 U.S. Flag Day. Other countries celebrate their respective flags on various dates. FYI: National Flag Week is June 14–20, 2020. Just for fun quiz: three colors on the United States flag. __________________________________________ five things you see in a parade. __________________________________________ four words that rhyme with grand. _________________________________________ The Story of the U.S. Flag The origins of Flag Day can be traced back to June 1975 when the Second Continental Congress met in Philadelphia to create a unified colonial force to fight in the American Revolution. At the beginning of the Revolutionary War, colonists were not united under a single flag but instead fought as independent regiments, each under its own flag. Examples of regiment flags include the iconic coiled rattlesnake with the refrain “Don’t Tread on Me” and one depicting a pine tree and a slogan that reads “An Appeal to Heaven.” To better organize and form a cohesive force, the Continental Colors were created. This became known as the “Grand Union Flag,” bearing 13 alternating red and white stripes and a British Union Jack in the canton. Some of the founding fathers felt this first design was too similar to the British flag at that time, and George Washington quickly came to believe that flying it was counterproductive to the revolutionary effort. Two years after the Grand Union Flag was created, the Second Continental Congress was busy drafting the Articles of Confederation. They took time out on June 14, 1777, to pass a resolution declaring that the flag of the United States would consist of 13 stripes, alternating red and white, and that the Union would be represented by 13 white stars upon a blue field.

During 1996 and 1997, researchers in 24 countries collected documentary evidence on the circumstances, contents, and processes of civic education in response to a common set of framing questions. They also solicited the views of experts on what 14-year-olds should know about a variety of political and civic issues. Each chapter provides a summary of these national case studies and highlights pressing issues or themes of current importance within civic education. This volume will give educators and policy-makers cross-national information to enhance consideration of the role and status of civic education within their countries,
