Summary

Flag Day in Russia on August 22 commemorates the raising of the present flag after a 1991 coup attempt.

National Flag Day has been celebrated since 1994 to commemorate the victory over the putschists in 1991, but it is not classed as a working holiday.

The current flag of the Russian Federation was adopted on December 11th 1993.

A melting pot of different cultures has created a unique and rich folklore for the country.
