Of some possible historical interest, there was once upon a time a Republic of West Florida for a while. The flag was the "Bonnie Blue", a blue field with a single white star in the center.

They still use it for tourism I think. Even will stamp a passport if you bring one with you.

I haven't had a passport since I was an infant. If I still have one, it's long lost.
Last time I went to and from Mexico and to and from Canada, they weren't requiring passports from Americans. Otherwise, my military ID sufficed.
