The flag of the Commonwealth of Independent States (Russian: Флаг Содружества Независимых Государств)[a] was adopted in 1996 and depicts a yellow sun on a dark blue field, with one straight and eight bending poles holding the sun. The design symbolizes the desire for equal partnership, unity, peace and stability.
Former flag
[edit]Before the flag was adopted, a provisional flag just showing the text "C.I.S." on a white background was used, e.g. at sporting events where a Commonwealth team replaced the Soviet Union when the Soviet Union had qualified for but never came to before it was dissolved.
