Symbols of the Russian Federation. The Flag
  • Origin of White Blue Red Colours.
  • The white-blue-red is based on the coat of arms of the duchy of Moscow, which is red with Saint George, wearing white armor and a blue cape, riding a white horse, holding a blue shield, defeating the dragon.
"The imperial Russia had a red, blue and white flag, created in 1697 by Peter the Great, based on Holland's. It was the origin of pan- Slavic colors, used by Serbia, Slovakia, Croatia and Bosnia . The white-blue-red flag was used till the fall of Kerensky's government, in November 1917. The same happened to the two-headed eagle, without the imperial crown"

  • Note that the 1856 version of St.George shows the rider going from right to left, while on modern shields both rider and dragon are turned from left to right, with the spear still in the foreground, making the right-handed knight's position more natural.
  • The shield of St.George The Victor
  • serves as the Moscow city shield since 15th century even without interruption and is added to the coat of arms as a symbol of the capital. St. George the Victor was originally a personal Coat of Arms of Yuri (George) Dmitriyevich, second survived son of Dmitry the Don, due to St. George being his patron saint .
The Russian Coat of Arms
  • The Two-headed Eagle serves as the Russian Coat of Arms since 15th century, when it was borrowed by Tsar Ivan the III from Bysanthy. The original color was black, as one can still see it on the Albanian State Flag. With the expansion of the Russian Empire the Eagle was decorated with shields of conquered countries and regions. After the Socialist Revolution in 1917 such a coat was abandoned. Since 1991, when Russia restored its independence, a number of attempts to adopt the official coat of arms were undertaken. In 1994 Russian Duma approved the coat featuring the Two-headed Eagle as the official one.
The Russian Coat of Arms December 30, 2000
  • MOSCOW, Russia -- A decree adding words to Russia's newly restored Soviet-era anthem has been signed by President Vladimir Putin.
The Anthem
  • Music by Aleksandr Aleksandrov, 1944 Lyrics by Sergey Mikhalkov, 2000 Russia, our holy country! Russia, our beloved country! A mighty will, a great glory, Are your inheritance for all time! Refrain: Be glorious, our free Fatherland! Eternal union of fraternal peoples, Common wisdom given by our forebears, Be glorious, our country! We are proud of you! From the southern seas to the polar region spread our forests and fields. You are unique in the world, inimitable, Native land protected by God! (Repeat refrain) Wide spaces for dreams and for living Are opened for us by the coming years Faithfulness to our country gives us strength Thus it was, so it is and always will be! (Repeat refrain)
The History of a new version of the Anthem.
  • The new version is the third by Sergey Mikhalkov.
  • The new lyrics' reference to God would have been unthinkable under the Communists, who enforced a policy of official atheism and persecuted religious believers.
  • The last anthem to mention God was "God Save the Czar," used by the czarist regime that collapsed in 1917.
  • But, unlike "God Save The Czar," which refers to the "Orthodox czar," the anthem doesn't specify any particular faith. Russia's dominant religion is Orthodox Christianity, but religious minorities include Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Catholics, and Protestants.
  • President Putin, elected March 26, has been more willing to accept symbols of the Soviet past. He agreed on a compromise under which the old anthem would be restored, while Russia would keep the post-Soviet tricolour flag and the state coat of arms with the czarist double-headed eagle.
