There are 13 stripes on the American Flag. There are 7 red stripes and 6 white stripes. I believe the stripes have more than one meaning. One being that the 13 stripes represent the 13 original colonies.
Today, the flag continues to carry the 13 red and white alternating stripes and now displays 50 white, 5-pointed stars against a blue background, representing the 50 states. Although the colors of the flag did not originally hold a specific meaning, many people have since suggested the significance of the colors.
