Coat of arms of the Tajik SSR
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The coat of arms of the Tajik SSR was adopted on March 1, 1937 by the government of the Tajik SSR. The coat of arms is based on the coat of arms of the Soviet Union. It shows symbols of agriculture (cotton and wheat). The red star is prominently featured with a small hammer and sickle within it. The rising sun stands for the future of the Tajik nation, the star as well as the hammer and sickle for the victory of communism and the "world-wide socialist community of states".
The the banner bear the USSR State motto ("Proletarians of all countries, unite!") in both Tajik (Пролетарҳои ҳамаи мамлакатҳо, як шавед!) and Russian.
The name of the republic is also shown in both Tajik (РСС Тоҷикистон) and Russian (Таджикская ССР).
The emblem was changed in 1992 to the present Tajikistan coat of arms, which uses a design similar to that of the Soviet one.
