It is believed that the white-blue-red flag was first raised during the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich on the first Russian warship "Eagle", built in 1667-1669 at the Dedinovskaya shipyard.
history of the holiday
The history of the Russian flag is closely connected with the events of 1991. It was then that the August putsch occurred on August 22. A flag was raised above the government building, which replaced the previously familiar red symbol of the Soviet Union. On the same day, a resolution was adopted on the introduction of a new standard - this time the RSFSR.
Rallies against the way of the Soviet Union ended tragically because people died. And the memorial procession, which took place later, was also marked by the presence of the tricolor. The decree establishing National Flag Day was signed three years later. Since then, this day has been of great importance for the country, which became independent, and for all those people who dreamed of a new life.
Today the flag of Russia - the “state tricolor” - is the official state symbol of our country, along with the coat of arms and anthem. The flag is a rectangular panel of three equal horizontal stripes: the top is white, the middle is blue and the bottom is red. The ratio of the width of the flag to its length is 2:3.

In Rus', a terrible belief was associated with St. Matthew's Day: supposedly at this time snakes attach themselves to the cow's udder and suck out the milk (hence the unpleasant nickname of the saint).

The milk pan was never placed either on a chair or on a tub, so that the cow’s milk would not disappear.

The tricolor flag was officially raised for the first time in Moscow over the White House in 1991 on August 22.
It is worth noting that previously, the tricolor flag was raised during the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich. This event took place on the first Russian warship, which was called "Eagle". This ship was built back in 1668. The construction of the ship was led by a Dutch engineer named David Butler.
However, after some time, the ship was burned by the associates of Stepan Razin near the Volga. During the time of Peter the Great, a decree was issued to raise the Russian flag “on all kinds of merchant ships.” He himself created and drew the sample in a horizontal form. It is still not known what motivated Peter the Great when he drew the flag. The colors of the Russian flag are said to have been chosen on the advice of the Dutch engineer who built the Eagle ship.
The Russian tricolor flag acquired official status in 1896. This happened on the eve of the coronation of Nicholas II. At this time, the Ministry of Justice decided to recognize the official state flag of Russia. This holiday is not a day off. However, some residents still celebrate this event. The main goal is for every resident of Russia to know the history of the origin of their national flag.

In 1921, on August 22, the Komi Republic was recognized as an autonomous part of the region. Previously, Komi was divided into several provinces. Only a few years later, Komi finally received the status of an autonomous republic. And in turn, it united into a single administrative-territorial entity. It is worth noting that ninety percent of the people living in this Republic are the Komi people.
After Komi acquired a new status, they created a new alphabet, national culture and opened schools. The Komi language received official status along with Russian. Part of the region is located in the northeastern part of Russia.
