The State Flag of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, also simply known as the Soviet flag or the Red Banner, is a red flag with two communist symbols displayed in the canton: a gold hammer and sickle topped off by a red five-point star bordered in gold. The flag's design and symbolism are derived from several sources, but emerged during the Russian Revolution.
