Flag of Tajikistan
The national flag of Tajikistan (Tajik: Парчами Тоҷикистон / Parčami Tojikiston / پَرچَمِ تاجِیکِستان) was adopted in November 1992, replacing the flag of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic of 1953. The flag features Pan-Iranian colors in a horizontal tricolor of red, white (double width) and green, with a yellow crown surmounted by an arc of seven stars at the centre. It has a width ratio of 2:3:2. The tricolor preserves the choice of colors in the former Tajik Soviet flag, as well as the 1:2 proportions.
