The Chinese Flag

The rectangular flag has a red field with five golden-yellow stars in the upper left corner. The star on the left is larger than the other four.The red color of the flag symbolizes revolution, power and the traditional color for the Chinese people. Also the large star symbolizes the Communist Party (rulers of China) and the smaller stars represent the people of China. It also represents the four classes of their society which are The Gentry, The Farmers or Peasantry, The Artisans and The Merchants. The Chinese flag was first adopted in September 27, 1949 but was first flown on October 1, 1949. The Flag was design by a Chinese man named Zeng Liansong.
