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.
Each star on the flag represents a state of the United States. The first stars were 13 states and the US flag had 13 stars; now the US has 50 states and 50 stars. The stars & stripes style of the US flag has its artistic merits too. The sophisticated blend of red, white and blue make it an attractive flag and the flag can grow more stars if the US should add another state.
