Flag of Armenian SSR
|
Flag of the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic |
This flag was adopted by the
Armenian SSR on
December 17,
1952.
Between
1936 and
1952, the flag was red with the gold
hammer and sickle in the top left hand corner. The
Armenian characters
HSSR (for
Haykakan Sovetakan Sotsialistakan Respublika) were in gold beneath the hammer and sickle.
Between
1922 and
1936, the flag was the same as between 1936 and 1952, but without the hammer and sickle, and with the
Cyrillic characters
ССРА (
SSRA) in their place.
