history

Soyombo

When the last Khan died in 1924, the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party proclaimed the People's Republic on November 26, 1924, and on the same day the parliament adopted the constitution, in which the seal, coat of arms and flag were anchored.

The first national flag showed the blue national coat of arms in the middle of a red cloth, following the Soviet model. This consisted of the Sojombo and underneath a Buddhist lotus flower " Badmalinchova ". The soyombo symbol was placed in front of all texts like a clef. It became a symbol of liberation from Manchu rule.

The current flag was officially introduced on January 13, 1992 along with the new constitution .

With the amendment of the constitution, not only the name of the Mongolian People's Republic was changed in Mongolia , but also the flag, which was introduced on February 23, 1949. The star symbolizing communism has been removed from the Sojombo .
