More than 20 years ago, on October 12, 1993 the state symbols of Bashkortostan - the emblem and anthem of the republic were approved. The birth of the most important symbols occurred due to the new status of the republic proclaimed on October 11.
The State Emblem of the region depicts the Salavat Yulaev Monument, which is a symbol of the peoples’ courage. The national hero is riding a horse on the background of the rising sun - embodiment of people's desire for freedom. The Kurai flower is an embodiment of unity.
