Significado de la Bandera

The national flag of Azerbaijan, often referred to as the Tricolor flag (Azerbaijani: Üçrəngli Bayraq), is a horizontal tricolor that features three equally sized bars of bright blue, red, and green; a white crescent; and a centred eight-pointed star. The flag has become the predominant and most recognizable symbol of Azerbaijan. The eight points of the star are also thought to stand for the eight Turkic peoples classified in pre-Soviet times: Azerbaijanis, Ottomans (Turks), Chagatais, Tatars, Kipchaks, Seljuks, and Turkomans.
