why is the texas flag called the lone star flag
Flag of Texas The flag of Texas is the official flag of the U.S. state of Texas. It is well known for its prominent single white star which gives the flag its commonly-used name: "Lone Star Flag". This lone star, in turn, gives rise to the state's nickname: "The Lone Star State." The flag, flown at homes and businesses statewide, is highly popular among Texans and is treated with a great degree of reverence and esteem within Texas.

In 2007, the phrase "one state under God" was added.[15] The addition of "under God" has been challenged in court, though an injunction was denied.[16]
