The Kazakh Khanate existed between the 15 th and the 19 th centuries and was located roughly where modern-day Kazakhstan now is. We can’t be sure of exactly what their flag was, and it’s very likely that they didn’t just have one unifying flag in the way that countries do now, but the flag that is generally assumed to have been theirs is a field of our favourite sky blue, topped with a white design.

The colour scheme was inherited from the flag of the Kazakh SSR, which had the standard gold hammer and sickle alongside the star of the Communist Party, all in the top left hand corner of a red field. Although all the flags of the Soviet Republics are very similar, and it’s quite a task to memorise them all and remember which one belongs to whom, like with the modern flag, the colours of the Kazakh SSR’s flag do stand out. The rest of the flag is very standard, but the band across the bottom third of the flag is in that iconic and unique sky blue.

A very distinctive flag with its yellow (or gold) design on a sky blue background, this visually is one of my favourite flags. That blue is so distinctive and so unique in the world of flags.

The steppe eagle which makes up part of the central design is a symbol that has appeared on tribal flags for centuries and represents freedom and power. The sun which rests atop the eagle, has 32 rays that are in the shape of grains of wheat, which ironically (given the huge expanse of Kazakhstan that is completely barren desert) is supposed to represent the prosperity of the land.

Between 1917 and 1953 when this flag was adopted, there were several other variations on the flag incorporating Kazakh SSR written in Kazakh and Russian, and in both Latin letters (Kazakh) and Cyrillic letters. It’s possible though that the sky blue colour scheme that makes the Soviet and the modern flags stand out so much was actually taken from the flag of the Kazakh Khanate.
