Why a 15 star confederate flag?

The 15-star Confederate flag, also known as the "Longstreet Flag," was used by the Confederate Army during the Civil War and represents the states that seceded from the Union. The additional stars symbolize states like Missouri and Kentucky, which were claimed by the Confederacy but never officially joined. The design reflects the Confederacy's desire for unity among its members, and its historical significance has made it a controversial symbol in discussions about race and heritage in the United States.
