Meaning Behind the Colors

• Sky-blue represents the blue sky and clear water, revered in the East and symbolizing the Turkic peoples.
• White signifies peace, purity, and kindness, also representing the ancient religion of Zoroastrianism.
• Green embodies the diverse and rich nature of the country, as well as one of the colors of Islam, practiced by the majority of Uzbekistan’s population.
• The red stripes symbolize vital forces pulsating in every living creature, representing life, courage, national and religious minorities.

The Significance of the Crescent Moon and Stars

The Crescent corresponds to the centuries-old tradition of the people of Uzbekistan and is also one of the main symbols of Islam. The Crescent moon and stars together represent a cloudless calm sky and peace. The 12 stars on the flag, arranged to visually form the inscription ‘Allah’ in Arabic, signify perfection, with 12 being an important number in Islam, representing 12 zodiac signs, 12 months of the year, and more.

A Historical Note

The flag of Uzbekistan was adopted in 1991 to replace the flag of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic (SSR), after the country gained independence. Since then, it has become a powerful symbol of national unity and identity. The flag’s design is deeply rooted in the country’s rich cultural heritage, with each element holding significant meaning and importance.
