Contexto cultural
The green on the flag represents nature, the new life of the republic, and the fertility of the land.

During the New Year (Navruz), 'yashillik' (greenery) is celebrated as the end of winter and the start of the planting season. Green tea (yashil choy) is the default drink offered to any guest, regardless of the time of day.
