| | Azerbaijan flag comprises of three equivalent horizontal stripes. These three equivalent horizontal stripes of the flag of Azerbaijan hold three different colors, namely: blue, red, and green. In the centre red colored stripe of the Azerbaijan flag there is a white semi-circular moon or crescent and an eight-pointed star. | | | | | | | This flag shows clear influence of the Persian, Ottoman and then Russian control of Azerbaijan. In fact the flag is based of the motto of the country "Turkify, Islamize, and Europeanize". The blue represents the Turkic people, the Red shows European influence. Red may also stand for the fact that Azerbaijan is also called "Land of Flames" owing to the abundant oil and natural gas which on occasion seeped directly to the surface. The green is the traditional color of Islam. The Crescent and star are intentionally similar to the flag of Turkey as the two countries have long been allies. Each of the eight points stands for one of the 8 groups of Turkic speaking peoples: Turkomans, Seljuks, Kipchaks, Tartars, Jagatais, Ottomans, and Azeris.
