In real world, modern day USA, yes, each star represents each state. In 2077 Cyberpunk NUSA, each star clearly doesn’t represent each state anymore.
I reckon its similar to why the US in Fallout has, each star represents a designates territories that encompass a two or more
Picture for reference:

You’re not wrong.
The stars represent the states that acknowledge the government of NUSA.
However, out of the 51 states that make up the **country** of NUSA, 36 of them are happy to be part of NUSA but (a) do not prescribe to the NUSA **government**’s ideals or (b) already have their own form of political / corporate governance.
I’ll be deep in the cold cold ground before I recognize the other states.
The other 36 don’t have the money to pay for a ~~yellow checkmark~~ star.
When you look at the map of 2077, you see that half the states aren’t officially within NUSA jurisdiction and that was the whole point of the Unification War, to regain control of all the old USA.
The stars on flag represents the official states of the NUSA, the other states are all free but still work within the laws of USA/NUSA, even Night City.
But if I’m not mistaken, more and more free states are officially re-joining the NUSA, except for Texas which is a independant Republic.
Meyers accidentally read 51 as 15 and was too embarassed to change it back and admit her mistake. She claimed Arasaka drugged her. Good times.
Werent these the fifteen regions which encompass multiple states during Elizabeth Kress’ presidency? Which were like 15 military districts due to permanent martial law since like the 2020ies? Ill look into it more
Math is for nerds in 2077 😎💀❤️🔥🤘🏼
AT least Texas got the hint and got kicked out to become the 1 star reviewed state.
Wow I thought cyberpunks lore was supposed to be fictional but it describes this country perfectly accurate
it represents the 15 companies that own the country
The big star equals 37 duh

Because the NUSA is a puppet state secretly ruled by Ohio from the shadows.
Started 15 and didn’t feel like changing the flag?
The person who made the flag is just dyslexic
Because it no longer represent states, but something much much more important, the 15 mega corporations.
For a while I thought it was a Cuban flag ngl
because 15 backwards is 51, duh.
