Texas has had three official national or state flags during its existence: the 1836 national standard, the 1836 national flag for the naval service, and the 1839 national flag, which became the state flag.
The flag of this state had two stars on it, so when Texas gained it's independence in 1836 they retained the same flag design, minus one star. This represents Texas' split from Mexico and it also gave Texas the nickname The Lone Star State. Texas got his nickname in April 21, 1836 the last battle. Texas state was the lone star republic when it was the Republic of Texas and is now the Lone Star State.
