Why is the American flag considered a symbol of the United States? A. It represents a dominant religious faith. B. It represents the country's history. C. It is large. D. It is flown on top of government buildings.

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

What do you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Well, the American flag can come in many shapes and sizes. So saying "itʻs big" is kinda irrelevant as our flag can be in any type of size

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Our flag is also devoid of religion, so A canʻt be the answer

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Well, just think about it. If you say the answer is C, thatʻs like saying, the fact that this flag is big, is more important than what is represents.

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Also, on government buildings, we have bird poop on the roofs but that doesnʻt make the bird poop important

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

But on the flag, we have 50 stars which represent the 50 states, and 13 stripes that stand for the 13 colonies

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is c ?

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):

Here What do you think is better. The flag represents our 50 states and the 13 colonies, or The flag is big

OpenStudy (shadowlegendx):
