It's based on the civil war tennessee battle flag. Yes, that flag.

Which one? TN was represented by several different regments in the war on both sides. If you're referencing the stars and bars, that was a virgina regiment's flag.

Edit: to be clear before I dig myself into a pro confederacy stance. Fuck Lee, fuck Jackson fuck those racists and fuck slavery
