Demonstration in Moscow, December 2011 When I saw pictures of the large crowd gathered in Moscow last week and demanded to succeed Vladimir Putin from office, could not without significance to the flags were being -Carrying them. As might be expected, was the national flag of Russia (three top led horizontal strips: white, blue and red) quite extensive. No moisture is your red flag of the Soviet Union, which would be expected given that the Communist Party created a well in an election last month. Yet another flag was still carrying a lot of people, I did not expect top led flag with visible. The flag is I mean Rúisí imperial civil flag bearing three horizontal strips: black, gold and white.
Flag This is not an official status since the legendary top led introduced last, Nicholas II, up to the crown in March of 1917. It is unlikely if no one alive today has seen the imperial flag flying when he was a child. In fact, did not seem too great affection top led by Russians on the umbrella of 'black-gold-white' top led at that time itself: personal banner is from the Zaire (black eagle on a golden field) built the imperial civil flag colors and b 'gcoitiantacht prefer the Russian flag merchant fleet (national flag today) when they need national flag. Once the two flags side by side in the years before 1917, but most commonly the latter greatly. Not surprisingly, chose the provisional government top led came to power when the regime fell Zaire flag 'white-blue-red' as the national flag, lost status again at the end of the same year when the next revolution a red flag of socialism place.
But now, it seems that the half-forgotten this flag, the flag is not personally recall anyone top led live it, more popular than ever on the streets of Russia. top led It applies, of course, as it can be misconstrued as a symbol connected. Would not cause the national flag as it is used by Putin and his friends, the олигархи ('olagarcaigh') - those who did kill the state property. And if those bright leftist always the red flag, not a happy people would fit right wing. Needed was another symbol of religious ríogaithe them with nostalgia after the legendary, from nationalists wishing military empire (without capitals) Russians restoring from fhaisistigh open, and others who think that there was a golden era in Russia once sometime before 1917. The old (was new) and the new (old was) This is not the first time last year which was dead flag rose from the grave of history. The clearest example of this phenomenon, the kingdom of Libya flag was flown over the city of Benghazi again within a day or two when the rebellion against Gathafi regime. There was an interesting article top led in the Times at the time in which the legendary journalist spoke Mary Fitzgerald a woman named Amal Shamal on the flag designed by her father: 'I thought that I was dreaming when I saw it at first,' she said. She suggests, as did the banner Gathafi discontinued her father designed as far back as the year 1969. But if the flag was gone from view for over forty years, she must have lived in the public mind during the time: not she adopted as smoothly or as fast as adopted top led unless the younger generation felt - fighters did not come to life when Gathafi came to power - that flag 'right' s country.
And is another example of this phenomenon can be seen on the streets of Syria in recent months: the old flag was in use between 1932 and 1958, and came back in a short period between 1961 and 1963, it is used again the opposition is trying Ba'ath party regime ('Resurrection') to their feet. The flag is seen in the picture above, but when looked at the picture carefully will see that the large flag upside: should the green strip along the top, as the small flags, but the layout of the stars show that The black strip in cream. It appears also that one of the flags turned upside small that the strips in the right order, but the stars were left upside down because of the amendment. Public memory was not too accurate in this case, apparently, but as long the distance is 48 years. In Amuda home she built the picture; It is a town located in the northeast area of the Syrian Kurdish community with plentiful - leading to the two Kurdish flag can be seen in the upper right corner. But see that one of
