The 33-star U. S. Flag flew at Fort Sumter during the
 opening battle of the Civil War. The stars represented
 even those states that had seceded from the Union.
 
 The Stars and Bars was the first national flag of the Confederate
 States of America. Its seven stars represented the
 seven states that had seceded by March, 1861, when the
 flag was adopted.
 
 The Palmetto Flag was adopted as the official state flag
 for South Carolina on January 26, 1861. The palmetto tree
 commemorated the role of Fort Moultrie in the first major
 naval defeat of the British in the American Revolution.
