Bryansk and Orenburg
Flag of Bryansk
Just in time for the Christmas Season - we have two very special flags. One flag unites Islam with Christianity while another seems to celebrate Christmas.... with Communism? What is going on here!? Shall we take a closer look?
Bryansk and Orenburg are Russian Provinces at the doorstep to Europe and Asia. Bryansk is next to Ukraine while Orenburg is next to Kazakstan. Never mind what you have falsely learned from the comical movie Borat, most ethnic Kazaks look more like Jackie Chan than a hairy olive toned Mediterranean sailor.
The flags of Bryansk and Orenburg both have red backgrounds. Coincidentally both have seals that are surrouded by a garland of oak leaves with acorns. Weaved within the oak leave garland are ribbons. Bryansk has a red ribbon with yellow pinstripes on the left and on the right, a green ribbon. Orenburg has a blue ribbon that intertwines on both the left and right.
Amazingly Bryansk maintains a bit of Communist heraldry with the hammer and scythe in the crest - accidentally crowning the proverbial X-mas tree. If you gotta' problem with that, there is mortar in the inner shield of the 'Commie Christmas Tree' that you can direct your complaints too.
On the other hand, Orenburg mixes two faiths at perpetual odds - via an Eastern Orthodox Cross and the crescent moon of Islam. Together these two flags honor Communism, Islam, and Eastern Orthodox Christianity on blankets of red.
Perhaps Russia alone is the only nation that would allow such a varied diversity on the banners of her 'national billboard.' Russia truly has gone where no nation has gone before - she tried it all: Fascism, Communism, Islam, Theocracy, Cold Lonely Empty Space, Mongol Colony, Dictatorship, Imperial Empire, Feudalism, Racist Democracy, PC Democracy, any kind of you name it - Revolution...Russia has been though it all. In the end, she always came home and knew when it was time to do the right thing.
