The national flag of Turkmenistan contains a green field with a white crescent moon and five stars.  Close to the hoist, there is a vertical band that contains five carpet guls stacked above two crossed olive branches. The green and red colors on the flag have always been used historically by the Turkmen. The crescent moon symbolizes hope for the future of the country and the five stars stand for the five provinces of Turkmenistan. The five carpet designs symbolize the five major tribes in the nation. The flag of Turkmenistan is said to be the most decorated flag on the world and was adopted in 1992 but the current flag has been in place as of 2001.
