A golden sun with grain-shaped rays hovers over a soaring steppe eagle on Kazakhstan's sky-blue flag, with a strip of traditional Kazakh ornamental pattern running down the hoist. The blue itself carries old meaning in Turkic culture, where the sky was worshipped and blue banners signaled loyalty and unity. The current design was adopted in June 1992, not long after independence from the Soviet Union.
