Lands of the Rising Sun 23Rd International Congress of Vexillology Yokohama, Japan – 12–17 July 2009 Ralph G.C
Lands of the Rising Sun 23rd International Congress of Vexillology Yokohama, Japan – 12–17 July 2009 Ralph G.C. Bartlett – President, Flags Australia Japan, also known as the Land of the Rising Sun, uses this symbol to great effect on both the national flag and naval ensign. However, it is not the only land to use the rising Sun as a significant symbol for either its flag or other insignia. The Sun is used on at least 12 current national flags, several territorial flags, national arms, and former national or colonial flags. Examples of these are1: Fig. 1 Antigua Fig. 2 Bahamas – Arms Fig. 3 British Columbia Fig. 4 Greenland Fig. 5 Argentina Fig. 6 Argentine Arms Fig. 7 Uruguay Fig. 8 Gilbert & Ellice Islands Fig. 9 Arms Fig. 10 Arms Fig. 11 Kiribati Fig. 12 China – Taiwan Fig. 13 French Polynesia Fig. 14 Polynesian Disc Fig. 15 Philippines Fig. 16 Labuan Federal Territory Fig. 17 Labuan Badge Fig. 18 Malaysia Fig. 19 Tibet Fig. 20 Nepal Fig. 21 Afghanistan Fig. 22 Kazakhstan Fig. 23 Uzbekistan Arms Fig. 24 Arms Fig. 25 Kyrgyzstan Fig. 26 Latvian Arms Fig. 27 Macedonia (1992-95) Fig. 28 Macedonia (since 1995) Fig. 29 Malawi Fig. 30 Namibia Fig. 31 Niger Fig. 32 Rwanda The meaning given to the Sun symbols does vary, but a general theme is: “Dawning of a new era and/or day”, religious status of the Sun, a symbol of life, enlightenment, or unity, and the geographic relationship of the Sun for a particular part of the world. A significant number of these flags and arms are for countries and territories in eastern Asia and the Pacific region. -
