The Pledge of Allegiance was an oath of loyalty often recited by citizens of the former Earth nation-state, the United States of America.

In 2268 the Yangs of Omega IV considered a slurred version of the pledge to be holy words. (TOS: "The Omega Glory")

The official words are "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America. And to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." The existance of the Pledge of Allegiance on Omega IV is likely an example of Hodgkin's Law of Parallel Planetary Development.
