Perhaps one of the most recognizable city flag in the United States, the four six-pointed stars on the Chicago flag represent significant events in the city's history:
- Fort Dearborn: The first star represents Fort Dearborn, which was established in 1803 and played a crucial role in the early history of Chicago.
- The Great Chicago Fire: The second star commemorates the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, a devastating event that led to the city's rebuilding and modernization.
- The World's Columbian Exposition of 1893: The third star represents the World's Columbian Exposition, a major world's fair held in Chicago in 1893 to celebrate the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas.
- The Century of Progress Exposition of 1933-34: The fourth star symbolizes the Century of Progress International Exposition, another world's fair that showcased technological and cultural advancements during the 1930s.
Together, these stars serve as a visual representation of Chicago's historical milestones and resilience. Fly the City of Chicago flag proudly!
