The Bonnie Blue Flag was the unofficial banner of
independence for the Southern states. The single star
represented secession, and the field of blue stood for
independence. However, the Stars and Bars was selected
as the first official flag of the Confederacy. The
seven stars represented the original Confederate states
of South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia,
Louisiana, and Texas. The best-known flag was the
Battle Flag, also known as the Southern Cross. Carried
by Confederate troops in the field, this flag included 13
stars, representing the original seven states, plus Virginia,
Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina. Stars for
Kentucky and Missouri were also included.
