Flag Of Georgia (country)
The flag of Georgia ( ka, საქართველოს სახელმწიფო დროშა, tr), also known as the five-cross flag ( ka, ხუთჯვრიანი დროშა, tr), is one of the national symbols of Georgia. Originally a banner of the medieval Kingdom of Georgia, it was repopularised in the late 20th and early 21st centuries during the Georgian national revival. History The current flag was used by the Georgian patriotic movement following the country's independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.

Flag Of The Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic
The flag of the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic was adopted by the Georgian SSR on April 11, 1951. It was the only Union Republic flag in which the hammer and sickle was not gold in colour. History Before 1937 the flag was red with the Georgian characters სსსრ (''SSSR'') in gold in the top-left corner. Between 1922 and 1937, the flag was red, with the Cyrillic characters ''ССРГ'' (''SSRG'') in the top left-hand corner. Between 1937 and the adoption of the above flag in the 1940s, the flag was red, with the Georgian characters საქართველოს სსრ (''Sakartvelos SSR'') in gold in the top-left corner. The 1951 flag fell into disuse in November 1990 when the flag based on the Democratic Republic of Georgia was introduced until the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
