The national flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan

.National Flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan 

The National Flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan is a piece of right-angled cloth of a sky-blue color with a picture of a golden sun with 32 rays in the center, sitting above a soaring steppe eagle. The flagstaff has a vertical line of national ornamentation. The picture of the sun, its rays, eagle and ornament are gold in color. The width/length ratio of the flag is 1:2.
Flag - this is one of the symbols of any country that embodies its identity and sovereignty. State flag is a flag of regular geometric shape, attached to a pole (flagpole). Since ancient times, the flag served as the union of the people of the country and its identification with a particular state formation.
In 1992, the state flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan, designed by Shaken Niyazbekov.
The national flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan is a rectangular cloth of blue color with the image in the center of the sun with 32 rays, under them - a soaring eagle. Flagstaff - vertical line with national patterns. Image of the sun, its rays, eagle and national ornament - color gold. The ratio of the flag's width to its length is 1 - 2.
In the tradition of heraldry, each color represents a certain concept. So, gold represents power, strength, wealth, permanence, nobility, faith, justice, virtue, goodness, faithfulness. The blue color symbolizes honesty, chastity, fidelity, perfection. Furthermore, the color corresponds to the sky, and air.
Blue color has a deep symbolic meaning in Turkic culture. Suffice it to say that the concept of "blue" and "sky" in the languages ​​of almost all Turkish-speaking be labeled. This is probably due to the fact that the ancient Turks were nebopoklonnikami who thought the sky with her father, and their blue flag - symbolizing devotion to his father-grandparent. On the territory of Kazakhstan from ancient times was spread belief in Tengri - The sky, which carries the idea of ​​monotheism long before the world's great religions - Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam. This belief has passed through the centuries, and in the early XX century Kazakhs erected over the graves of the saints dome and stained it blue, thus simulating the model of the world: on the four pillars, representing the four corners of the world, rests a spherical dome, symbol of the sky.
Taking into account the cultural traditions, blue color in all Turkic peoples perceived as heavenly, holy, promised, cherished, primordially pure, supreme.
If we turn to the elements of the image on the cloth of the flag, then, based on the heraldic canons, we can say that the sun symbolizes wealth and abundance, and the eagle - the power, insight, generosity. In addition, the traditions of different peoples existed reverence of the sun as a symbol of rebirth (the birth of the day after a night), a symbol of movement and time.
Depicting the sun in their state attributes, Kazakhstan reaffirms its commitment to universal values ​​and the international community, which also indicates that the new young country full of life-affirming energy, open to all countries of the world for cooperation.
Does not require special explanation and the other part of the State of the flag - the image of an eagle. He is one of the first heraldic attributes, long used in the coats of arms and flags of many nations. This image is generally perceived as a symbol of power, insight and generosity. In the state symbols of the importance not only the image of every detail, but also their implementation, accommodation. In this sense, the image of an eagle on our flag is significantly different from its predecessors. Previously highlighted his predatory traits and aggressive posture as a manifestation of strength and power. On the flag this way found a brand new artistic decision, and it is no less expressive than the tested approaches. Firstly, catches the eye calm, peaceful character drawing. Importance of his strength, stamina, vision and fearlessness before any tests. Secondly, it is located under the sun, as it were, on their wings bear the fire of Prometheus, the fire of Happiness. Third, it is in motion, flying to their cherished goal. This is the desire of our people to happiness and prosperity, to the heights of human civilization.
Occupies a special place image of an eagle in the outlook of the Kazakhs, which is associated with concepts such as freedom, rebellion, dignity, courage, high ideals, breadth of mind and purity of thoughts. For nomads and his descendants are not in the world of birds, the eagle equal.
An important element of the State Flag is located at its shaft vertical line with national patterns. Kazakh ornament - one of the forms of specific artistic perception of the world in strict accordance with the aesthetic tastes of the people. Which is a very complex harmony, sometimes abstract forms, lines and rhythms, it is an expressive means of revealing the inner world of people. They are the prototypes of concrete objects and phenomena of the world.
Enrichment of ornamental motifs, their dynamic development, according to scientists, are inherent in the high level of cultural development.
