Emblem of Kazakhstan

Common card · No. 484276

The emblem of Kazakhstan (Kazakh: Қазақстан елтаңбасы, romanized: Qazaqstan eltañbasy; Russian: герб Казахстана, romanized: gerb Kazakhstana) was adopted on 4 June 1992. The designers of the emblem are Jandarbek Melibekov and Shot-Aman Ualikhan. About 245 projects and 67 description designs of the future arms took part in the final competition. Like other post-Soviet republics whose symbols do not predate the October Revolution, the current emblem retains some components of the Soviet one, in this case, rising sun rays and star. Prior to 1992, Kazakhstan had an emblem similar to all other Soviet Republics.
