The stripes represent the original 13 Colonies and the stars represent the 50 states of the Union. The colors of the flag are symbolic as well; red symbolizes hardiness and valor, white symbolizes purity and innocence, and blue represents vigilance, perseverance and justice. Our flag is an inspiring symbol that unites us all as American citizens. The unique history of the American flag follows the history of our country and reminds us of the triumphant beginning of the United States. The 13 stripes: a symbol of the first 13 colonies. The stars: a symbol of our country's 50 United States. As our country grew and developed, so did our flag. It has followed the fate of the country itself and, in the future, our flag may even change again.

At the end of July 1905, Sun Yat Sen returned to Japan from his trip to Europe and the United States. Received with enthusiasm by the Chinese students and considered the leader of the anti-Manchu revolutionary movement, Sun took advantage of this new popularity to found a new political organization. In Tokyo he established the Alliance Society (同盟會, tóngménghuì, strictly, the Society of the Chinese Revolutionary Alliance), that grouped several revolutionary circles. This society would be the embryo from which the Kuomintang, the main party of Chinese nationalism, would be born in 1911. The formation, of which Sun was named president, disputed with the Chinese constitutional monarchists both the favor of the nationalist youth and the financial support of the emigration, which the two groups disputed. A new newspaper for political formation was created at the time, Min Bao (People's Daily).
