Symbols are made to represent a common cause that people are part of, such as a union, team, force, or religion. The symbols are created to show membership or connection with the others in that group, such as an emblem for a team, which all of the players wear on their uniforms. We need symbols to feel acceptance or connection with something. Most people in America own a flag that represents their country. This is to show represent the country, and to honor it.  The American flag for example is a symbol of one of the most powerful  countries in the world. To different people, it symbolizes different things. Most symbols represent something different to different people, who may think of some thing different when they see it.
