Flag
Name | Blue Stars |
---|---|
Adopted | 1932 (first adoption) December 4, 1997 (2nd adoption) |
Relinquished | 1979 (originally) |
The official flag of Kaoro has a red field, a blue canton containing 14 stars orbiting a larger star. The 14 stars represent the 14 Kaoroan states, with the larger star representing the unity of Kaoro. The blue canton represents future & prosperity, and the red field represents strength.
The flag, although going through many changes, has remained the same principle. The Kingdom of Kaoro used the same design, but with the 14 stars orbiting the Kingdom motto Reĝo, Vivo, Libereco (King, Life, Liberty), with the current flag being adopted after the Kaoroan Revolution. The People's Federal Socialist States of Kaoro replaced the larger star with a cog and plant in 1979, and was replaced with the current flag after the Kaoroan Civil War (1996-1997).
Coat of Arms
The Coat of Arms is the same as the canton in the flag but circling around the 15 stars. The 14 stars represent the 14 Kaoroan states, with the larger star representing the unity of Kaoro. The Kaoro State uses the Coat of Arms as its official seal.
Motto
The National motto is For a honourable cause, and a worthy flag ("Por afero honorinda, kaj flago inda" in Kaoroan.)
