Kingdom of Bhutan, 1969

Kingdom of Bhutan, 1969

In 1969, Bhutan’s flag was standardised. It has an aspect ratio of 2:3 and is divided diagonally from the lower hoist corner, with the upper triangle yellow and the lower triangle orange. Centred along the dividing line is a large black and white “Druk” (dragon) holding a norbu, or jewel, in each claw and facing away from the hoist side. It alludes to the Dzongkha name of Bhutan – Drukyul (Dragon Country) and the Drukpa Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, Bhutan’s dominant religion.
