Kazakhstan Flag And Its History

By Mishon Dunkan


Kazakhstan history tells us that even before our era numerous nomadic tribes inhabited what is now Kazakhstan. The historians of antiquity called them the Saka. For many centuries, the land of the Saka was the scene of bloody, devastating wars. And many conquerors had encroached on that land.

The indigenous Kazakhs were a nomadic Turkic people who belonged to several divisions of Kazakh hordes. Their tribes fell under Mongol rule in the 13th century and they were dominated by Tartar khanates until the area was conquered by Russia in the 18th century. The area became part of the Kirgiz Autonomous Republic formed by the Soviet authorities in 1920, and in 1925, this entity's name was changed to the Kazakh Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. Along with the other central Asian republics, Kazakhstan obtained its independence from the collapsing Soviet Union in 1991.

The current flag of Kazakhstan was adopted on June 4, 1992, replacing the flag of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic. The national flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan represents a rectangular breadth of blue color with the sun in its center surrounded by 32 beams, and a steppe eagle flying beneath it. There is a vertical strip with national ornament near the hoist. Images of the sun, beams, eagle and ornament รข€" are all gold-colored.

The light blue shading additionally symbolizes the social and ethnic solidarity of Kazakhstani individuals. The pattern speaks of the workmanship and social customs of the old khanate and the Kazakh individuals. The light blue foundation remains for the different Turkic people groups that make up the present-day populace of the nation, including the Kazakhs, Tatars, Mongols, Uyghurs, and others.

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.

For the modern nation of Kazakhstan, the eagle is a symbol of independence, freedom and flight to future. The Flag Company Inc specialized in flag designs offered a special edition of decals and flags to memorize the history of Kazakhstan flag for the future.
