What is the name of the national anthem?

The national anthem of the United States is known as "The Star-Spangled Banner." This anthem was written by Francis Scott Key during the War of 1812, specifically inspired by the sight of the American flag still flying over Fort McHenry after a night of bombardment. The lyrics express a sense of pride and resilience, reflecting the struggle for American independence and the courage of those who fought for it. Its official status as the national anthem was established by a congressional resolution in 1931.

The other choices, while popular patriotic songs representing American values and ideals, do not hold the same designation as the national anthem. "America the Beautiful" is often sung at national events but is not the anthem; "God Bless America" is frequently used in patriotic contexts but also does not have the status of the anthem; and "This Land Is Your Land," while iconic and beloved, is a folk song rather than an official anthem. Thus, "The Star-Spangled Banner" remains the only song recognized as the national anthem of the United States.
