Flying Uzbek flag at Kuksaray Square, Samarkand
The national flag of Uzbekistan, officially the state flag of the Republic of Uzbekistan, consists of a horizontal triband of celestial blue, white and green, separated by two thin red fimbriations, with a white crescent moon and twelve white stars in the canton. Adopted in 1991 to replace the flag of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic, it has been the flag of the Republic of Uzbekistan since the country gained independence in that same year. The design of the present flag was created by the former one.
