ABKHAZIA

Adopted 23 July 1992. The design of the flag is based on the flag of North Caucasia, which was in use from 1918-1919. The palm of the hand was a symbol of Abkhaz statehood in the 8th-10th centuries and the stars and stripes represent the seven historic districts of Abkhazia. Seven is a sacred number, often found in Abkhaz mythology, religion and folk art. The stripes in green and white symbolize the tolerance of the Caucasus people and the peaceful co-existence of Islam (green) and Christianity (white).
