When we say the Pledge of Allegiance, we show loyalty to the United States, its flag, and the Republic for which the flag stands. This loyalty encompasses the nation's guiding principles, including its Constitution, democratic foundations, and shared values of liberty and justice for all. The flag is a symbol representing these ideals and the unity of the nation. Pledging allegiance is thus a commitment to the country's ideals and the collective effort towards a just and unified society.
