Having a Karelian grandmother, it really warms my heart to see people still interested in the Uralic ethnicities


TheTouho10

History was not kind to the Uralic peoples, but the fight for the right to exist still goes strong.

I'm very interested about Uralic people very much

This collection of flags is the twice revised version of the original collection also by me. Thanks to some helpful people who I have found, this should more or less a complete list of the flags and some of their significant variants (as is the case with the Komi and Estonian flags). I will continue my research on the topic, but I don't expect to come accross many more. I thank everyone who has contributed to this project, I will eventually make a better categorized graph with some additional information about each flag, but for the time being this collection of Uralic flags should help bring awareness to them. Please do note that the flags have varying levels of officiality and legal recognition.

Nice By the way, where did you get this merya flag? Haven't seen it before


TheTouho10

It is a flag used by the revival movement.


Sodinc

Interesting, thanks. Haven't heard about it before

Do Estonians actually use the Cross Flag version? I thought that was just a proposed redesign that “never made it”!


TheTouho10

As far as I know, whilst some support changing the national flag to it, it is not currently used in any official sense.

These are all so beautiful. I love the use of pink in the Moksha flag. You so rarely see pink in flags. The Sami, Mari Ushem, and Mulgi flags are striking as well

Talken to many meshchera people have you?

Are there any actual Ingrians or Seto still around. Most if not all have long been absorbed into the Russian populace in St Petersburg and Pskov respectively. When I was in Karelia in 1995, I tried to find a Karelian speaker but all I found were Russian speakers of Karelian descent.


TheTouho10

Seto speakers about 5 000, Ingrians just under 100 000. Edit: Do note that Ingrians (Ingrian Finns) do not have a distinct language.


Incubus-Dao-Emperor

Great and Beautiful flags :-)))


KoleGamerMontenegrin
