Flag Of The Székelys
The flag of the Székelys ( hu, Székely zászló; ro, Drapelul secuilor) is the flag used by the Hungarian Székely community of Romania.

Being designed by Ádám Kónya, the Szekler National Council adopted it in 2004 and is since then a symbol for the Székely people. The Romanian authorities have imposed some restrictions on under which conditions may the flag be displayed, which has allegedly fostered its popularity. It is argued that both the symbols of the flag and its colors are traditional symbols of the Székelys. Regarding the latter, there is no fixed evidence, but the crescent moon and sun have been used since at least the 15th century in Transylvania. However, the use of a "sun-star" as Kónya has defined it is controversial as it does not comply with heraldic rules. Apart from the blue and golden one, there is another unofficial version of the S ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
