Uzbek Flag Vector
The blue stripe represents the sky, water, and traditional symbol of peace, as well as the sign of historical continuity (the flag of Amir Temur's state was also blue in color). The white stripe represents purity, peace, and cotton, the most important agricultural product of Uzbekistan. The green stripe represents nature, spring, and Islam, the religion of the majority of Uzbeks. The red fimbriations represent life, energy, and the struggle for freedom. The crescent moon is a symbol of Islam and the stars represent the 12 regions of Uzbekistan. The flag was adopted on November 18, 1991, when Uzbekistan declared its independence from the Soviet Union.
