The two blue stripes () between the red () represents the rivers Amu Darya and Syr Darya, the red represents the "revolutionary struggle of the working masses", the hammer and sickle represents the peasants' and workers' union, and the red star is the symbol of the ruling Communist Party. In 1926, the Turkmen flag was red with a large gold hammer and sickle in the top-left corner, similar to the flag of the Soviet Union.

From the 1940, the flag was the same, but with the characters in Cyrillic characters ''ТССР'' (''TSSR''). On September 26, 1973, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Turkmen SSR modified the regulation of th ...
