Only the most patriotic among us may see the dog.

If You Get An 8/10 On This American Flag Quiz, You Will Be Rewarded With A Very Patriotic Dog

Betsy Ross [typically gets credit](http://www.history.com/news/ask-history/did-betsy-ross-really-make-the-first-american-flag) for designing the American flag, though this fact is widely disputed amongst historians.

Who is commonly credited for the design of the original American flag?

That was a harder one. The sixth flag was [knocked down](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/space/9439047/American-flags-still-standing-on-the-Moon-say-scientists.html) by Apollo 11 during liftoff. Oops.

Of the six American flags we've placed on the moon, how many are still standing?

The answer is [Francis Scott Key](http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/key-pens-star-spangled-banner). And BTW, Robert Matthew Van Winkle is actually the birth name of Vanilla Ice.

[He got a B-](http://www.usflag.org/flagdesigner.html), and you'll have to do better than that on this quiz if you wanna see the dog.

Our current 50-star flag was designed by a 17-year-old named Robert G. Heft, as part of an assignment for school. What grade did he receive on the project? 

I don't want to give too much away, but the dog at the end of this quiz is wearing a HAT. You gotta see it!!!

Which of the following is NOT a common nickname for the American flag?

The flag has 13 stripes for the [13 original colonies](http://www.history.com/news/a-flag-day-history-of-the-stars-and-stripes). If you didn't get that right, you don't deserve the dog.

Okay, I'm gonna make this next one easy because I really want you to see the dog. How many stripes are on the flag?

The [official colors](http://www.cciprinting.net/?p=3450) of the flag are White, Old Glory Red, and Old Glory Blue. Not very original, IF YA ASK ME.

The American flag has official names for its three colors. Those names are: White, Old Glory Red, and...

Alaska became an [official US state](http://www.ushistory.org/betsy/flagfact.html) on January 3rd, 1959. Hawaii became one on August 21st of that same year.

The final two stars on the flag were added for Alaska and Hawaii. Which became a state first?

The flag gets folded into a [triangle](http://www.usflag.org/foldflag.html). ALMOST TIME FOR THE PATRIOTIC DOG.

When the flag is properly folded, what shape does it take?

[50 stars](http://www.ushistory.org/betsy/flagfact.html) for fifty states!

Last question, and I'm gonna make this a REALLY easy one because this dog deserves to be SEEN. How many stars are on the American flag? I literally gave you the answer to this question in #4, so just scroll up if you don't know.

Ugh, this dog is so good and I wish I could show it to you. Honestly, just take the quiz again now that you know the answers. Cheating is allowed!!!

NO DOG FOR YOU.

You don't get to see the VERY patriotic dog, but I will show you a kinda patriotic dog since you did okay. See? It's got a flag in its mouth. But man...the very patriotic dog is the REAL DEAL. Honestly, just retake the quiz again now that you know the answers. I won't tell.

Here's a SOMEWHAT patriotic dog.

YOU WIN THIS PATRIOTIC DOG!
