National Flag Day is observed in Armenia every June 15, commemorating the national flag known as Yerakouyn, which features three horizontal stripes of red, blue, and orange. Established by the National Assembly of Armenia in 2006, this holiday celebrates the significance of the flag, which was adopted on August 24, 1990, replacing the flag of Soviet Armenia. The colors of the flag hold deep symbolic meanings: red represents the struggles of the Armenian people, particularly the blood shed during the Armenian Genocide; blue symbolizes the desire for peace; and orange reflects the creative talent and industrious nature of Armenians. The official interpretation of these colors is outlined in the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia. National Flag Day serves as a reminder of the country's history and cultural identity.
