Symbols of USA and their hidden meaaning…

The Pledge of Allegiance

The Pledge of Allegiance is a solemn promise of loyalty to the flag and the republic it represents. Recited in schools and public gatherings, it underscores the values of patriotism and unity.

The phrase "one nation, under God," added in 1954, highlights the role of faith in American life. This pledge serves as a reminder of the collective commitment to uphold the principles of democracy and freedom.

It reinforces the idea that, despite differences, Americans are bound by a shared vision of liberty. The Pledge of Allegiance is more than a ritual; it's a declaration of allegiance to the nation's ideals.
