The state flag of Tuva in Russia is a light blue field with a white-fimbriated pall of the same color bordering a yellow triangle on the hoist.
White symbolizes silver and virtue; additionally, it is common in the Russian republic for hostesses to greet guests with silver streamers in their arms. The golden yellow triangle symbolizes gold and Tibetan Buddhism. Blue symbolizes the morals of nomadic herdsmen (which are commonly respected in the region), as well the Tuvan sky. The blue pall symbolizes the confluence of the Bii-Khem (Bolshoy Yenisei) and Kaa-Khem (Maly Yenisei) rivers at the Tuvan capital of Kyzyl, where they form the Yenisey River, known to locals as the Ulug-Khem River.
The flag was created on 18 September 1992, by Oyun-ool Sat, I. C. Salchak and O. I. Lazarev. The proportions are 2:3.
