Every year on August 22, Russia celebrates the Day of the State Flag. Russian Federation, established on the basis of Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 1714 of August 20, 1994 "On the Day of the State Flag of the Russian Federation".
On August 22, 1991, the tricolor Russian flag was officially raised over the White House in Moscow for the first time, replacing the red flag with a hammer and sickle as the state symbol. On this day, at the Extraordinary Session of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, a resolution was adopted to consider "a panel of ... white, azure, scarlet stripes" as the official national flag of Russia.
It is believed that for the first time the white-blue-red flag was 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 took place on August 22. A flag was raised over 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 - already the RSFSR.
Rallies against the way of the Soviet Union ended tragically, because people died. A memorial procession, which took place later, was also marked by the presence of the tricolor. The decree on the establishment of the National Flag Day was signed three years later. Since then, this day has been of great importance for the country, which became independent, and 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 the anthem. The flag is a rectangular panel of three equal horizontal stripes: the top one is white, the middle one is blue and the bottom one is red. The ratio of the flag's width to its length is 2:3.

This day marks the memory of Matthias - one of the disciples of Jesus Christ, who became an apostle instead of Judas Iscariot. In the book of the apostolic acts, the name of this saint is mentioned only once - in the story of how Peter proposed to choose the twelfth apostle after the betrayal of Judas. According to legend, the choice between Matthias and Joseph Barsabas was made by lot.
Other information about Matthias is known from later sources.
According to the life compiled by Dimitry of Rostov, Matthias was born in Bethlehem and from early childhood studied the Law of God under the guidance of Simeon the God-bearer. Prior to his election as one of the Twelve Apostles, he was one of the 70 disciples of Christ. Later, he, along with the rest of the twelve apostles, witnessed the descent of the Holy Spirit, and then preached in Jerusalem and Judea. Life ascribes to him the gift of miracles, healing the sick and casting out demons.

According to legend, the choice between Matthias and Joseph Barsabas was made by lot. Other information about Matthias is known from later sources.

Life ascribes to him the gift of miracles, healing the sick and casting out demons. Many times the life of Matthias was threatened by danger, but each time he happily passed it. But one day, trouble did not bypass him: the Sanhedrin condemned the preacher for spreading Christianity and sentenced him to death. According to some sources, the apostle was stoned to death, according to others - he was crucified on the cross.
In Rus', a terrible belief was associated with Matthew's day: supposedly at this time snakes cling to a cow's udder and suck out milk (hence the unflattering nickname of the saint). Therefore, they tried not to let the cattle out to pasture, and also observed all the customs associated with it with special care. For example, housewives always tried to milk a cow alone, so that the “extra eye” would not spoil the cow. A pail was never placed on a chair or on a tub, so that the cow would not waste milk. From Matthew, the approach of autumn became obvious, the air cooled, and clouds increasingly appeared in the sky. "Matthew lets bad weather, summer rain interrupts autumn" ...

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 earlier, 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 in 1668. The construction of the ship was led by a Dutch engineer, whose name was 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 a sample in a horizontal form. The reason why Peter the Great was guided when he drew the flag is still not known. 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 that time, the Ministry of Justice decided to recognize the official state flag of Russia. This holiday is not a holiday. However, some residents still celebrate this event. The main goal is for every citizen of Russia to know the history of the origin of their national flag.

During this period, a day off is arranged. Many cities prepare in advance for the holiday and arrange festive events. Artistic and festive concerts are organized during the public mass festivities.
The entire district of the Komi Republic officially became part of Russia in the fifteenth century. This happened before the October Revolution. The Komi people got the opportunity to acquire their own region in 1917. This was decided at the People's Assembly of the RSFSR, where a declaration of the rights of the peoples of Russia was adopted.
On August 22, 1921, 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, 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.
