Whats this mean?
When we create symbols we usually are in a time when there is something that we really enjoy and we want to have it forever so we make it into a symbol.We want to keep this symbol because if say 50 years from now we look at it we can go back ad think about why we ahd that symbol and it makes you think hard about what that means.
The American flag is considered a symbol because it shows us how we fought for freedom to become our own country.This is actually a good symbol because for every state in the U.S has a star that could be put on the flag.So our flag has changed over the last 50 years.
