National Anthem. The American National Anthem was inspired by the events at the Battle of Baltimore, one of the key moments in the War of 1812. When Francis Scott Key saw the American flag flying above Fort McHenry amidst the cannon fire, he was inspired to write the historic poem Defence of Fort McHenry. This poem would be put to music to become The Star-Spangled Banner. The song became the official American National Anthem on March 3, 1931.
