The Flag Company Inc And Armenia National Flag

By Jason Gordon


The earliest Armenian flag that we could locate dates back to 180 BC. The very early flags were carvings attached to a pole. The flags came in a variety of base colors. The designs featured eagles, dragons, lions and more symbols representing the gods. During the early Christian era, there were purple flags with an embossed lion.

Armenia proclaimed its independence on May 28, 1918, after the Russian Revolution. On August 1 of that year, the new constitution gave a red-blue-orange striped banner official sanction, and it kept on flying until 1921 April 2 when Russia's Red Army vanquished Armenia.

One interpretation of its symbolism is that red stands for the blood shed by Armenians in the past, blue is for the unchanging Armenian land, and orange is for courage and work. Historical interpretations have also been given to the colours.

The National flag of Armenia was approved on the 24th of August, 1990. Colours presented on the flag of Armenia are the colours of the final period of the Rubenidov dynasty (the kingdom of Cilicia). The rectangular banner consists of three equal horizontal strips: top - red, middle - blue and the bottom one is orange. Red, blue and yellow have the major symbolic significance of all the composition.

The implications of the hues have been translated in various ways and one of them is: the red shading symbolizes the blood shed by Armenians in the barrier of their nation, the blue shading is an image of the nation's nature, and orange one implies national bravery.

The typical importance of Armenian banner expressed in the constitution is translated as following: red symbolizes the Armenian good country, the Armenian individuals' proceeded with a battle for survival, support of the Christian confidence, Armenia's autonomy and flexibility. Blue symbolizes the will of the general population of Armenia to live underneath peaceful skies. Orange symbolizes the imaginative ability and persevering nature of the general population of Armenia. Flag Company Inc decided to assist with the history development by providing special decals and banners to make it easy to build a bit of university right at home.
