[ KAZAKHSTAN ] From Kazakhstan with Love ^^
The flag of Kazakhstan is sky blue with a golden sun over a flying
eagle. Along the hoist side, is the national decorative pattern, the
horns of the ram, called “koshkar-muiz”. Centered on the sky blue flag is a golden sun, its thirty-two rays beaming, representing life, abundance, and prosperity. Below the sun, a golden steppe eagle stretches its wings, following the curve of the sun. An indigenous bird of the region, the eagle represents independence and forward movement, symbolizing early Kazakhstan and its future potential. Along the hoist side of the flag of Kazakhstan is an abstract decorative patter, which is called “koshkar-muiz,” meaning horns of the ram. This is a traditional pattern, used historically by the Khanate people of the region. The flag of Kazakhstan was designed by Shaken Niyazbekov, a Kazakhstani artist, who submitted the flag design at the end of Soviet Socialist Kazakhstan. The new design was selected and officially adopted on June 4, 1992. (source) |
