The flag of Georgia consists of a white field with a large red cross that extends to the edges, which is the St. George's Cross. In each of the four quadrants created by the cross, there is a smaller red cross, known as the Georgian Cross. This design is rich in historical symbolism, representing Christianity and the country's patron saint, St. George. Adopted on January 14, 2004, the flag is rooted in the history of the Georgian kingdom and reflects the nation’s identity and Christian heritage. The colors and design have been associated with Georgia for centuries, making it a powerful symbol of national pride.
