A short essay on the Star Spangled-banner - Amato P. Mongelluzzo

The shining flag of the stars, the national anthem of the United States is a poem inspired by the fight of Baltimore who fought during the war of 1812 from September 12 to 14, 1814.

To the British Washington, DC, elderly, respected doctor, Dr. William Beans was arrested and arrested for his unfriendly act against British soldiers.

Francis Scott Kee was a famous lawyer dispatched from President James Madison and Dr. Burns friends, after release, British people agreed to release Barenes. But when England next attacks Baltimore, Maryland, they will not allow anyone to land

British forces landed soldiers on September 12 and fought a fierce battle, but they could not occupy Baltimore. As part of a two-sided attack, the UK is currently dispatching a naval fleet to attack and destroy port cities. The main defense of Baltimore Port is Fort McHenry. After 25 hours, the British fleet shot rockets and bombs at the fortress.

Defenders of the fortress were brave enough to endure the bombing and did not surrender. The English people noticed that they were unable to pay Baltimore without serious injuries. They think that they are willing to pay for this, so they left Baltimore

During the bombing, the key came down the river and saw the inspiration while writing poems on the story of the battle. When he reached Baltimore, he completed the poem. The key wrote this poem to fit heaven's rice according to this English old song

This song was gradually welcomed and used by both parties during the Civil War. In the following year, it was very popular with the military and was used as "unofficial" national anthem. During the First World War, this song was widely accepted and reached the Parliament in 1931.

The National Museum of American History is part of the Smithsonian Institute that displays the Stars and Banners in the main lobby 30 feet wide and 42 feet long. Each star point is 2 feet away, and each stripe is 2 feet wide. Due to the deterioration of the situation, most Americans always believed that this flag would fly during the battle. But historians using British and American sources discovered that there was a late summer storm that would prevent 1,260 sf wool flags from flying during the fight. The storm flag from 17 to 25 will be the actual flag flight size during battle. But when the British departed from Baltimore they raised the flag the next morning. This is a flag that is visible when the key enters Baltimore.

Originals written by keys are not on the back of the envelope, they are not invented. The manuscript is currently exhibited at the Maryland State Historical Society in Baltimore

Fort McHenry is still standing, it is part of the National Park Service. The fort is the only place with a national historic site and a historic shrine.

Based on what he saw during the battle and the victory of the United States and the inspiration of the huge American flag on the fort, Francis wrote the "defense of the fortress M'Henry" known as "stars and stripes" It was. Fifteen stars and 15 stripes made by women at the same banner, later known as Stars and Stripes at the Baltimore Pratt Street home, were exhibited in the American History Museum today. Since neither side wants to continue fighting, the war ended with the Belgian Peace Treaty (Ghent Treaty). Who is the most serious loser in the war for the past three years? Native Americans are the biggest victims of war. In the UK there is a long-term goal of building a large, neutral native American state covering most of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan states. However, this plan was rejected at the Ghent Peace Conference and never re-emerged.

In 1899, the US Navy officially adopted "Star Spangled Banner". In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson ordered the performance of "Star Spangled Banner" at the military and other appropriate scenes. Two years later, this song was played in the seventh match of the first game of the 1918 World Championships, and since that time this song has been quoted as a national anthem in baseball games. "Stars and Stripes" was held at the opening ceremony of Philadelphia in 1897 and then began in Polo Field in New York in 1898. In any case, the national anthem tradition is sung before each performance. Baseball games began in World War II
