Dan again with no stars on the flags

“BIRTH of a NEW NATION” - Q

The black American flag, in retrospect, was a symbol of defiance. The black flag is the polar opposite of the white flag. 
It also meant that ‘no quarter’ would be given and wouldn’t take any prisoners and kill anyone who got in their way. The general meaning has not changed, but the meaning has been altered in some quarters.

The black American flag was born during the American Civil War, which lasted from 1861 to 1860.
It was the deadliest war ever fought on marina land. This war claimed the lives of over 600,000 people and leftover 400,000 people missing.
During the war, soldiers from the confederate side used a black flag instead of the white surrender flag. 
This flag meant they would neither withdraw nor surrender. It also meant ‘they will give no quarters. 
“No quarters” was a term coined from the word “quarters,” which meant that a prisoner was spared death. 
As a result, the phrase “no quarter” meant that no one would be spared or taken prisoner. If he were apprehended, he would face certain death.
