The Pledge was written back in the late 1800s; it was designed so that people had a way of showing respect for their country and for the symbol of that country (the American flag). Allegiance is another word for loyalty-- so, you are promising to be loyal to your country.

What I am showing loyalty to is all of the lives sacrificed over the time to keep that flag flying high over our capitol. To show respect to the people who's bravery ended in loss to keep that flag flying over our capitol. To pledge that although I am not fighting the battles, my heart is for the soldier who is who is fighting to keep that flag flying over our capitol.

'Allegiance' means loyalty. 'I pledge allegiance' means 'I promise to be loyal'.

While saying the Pledge of Allegiance, Americans show their loyalty by taking off their hats, covering their heart with their right hand, and so on.
