History

Before independence from the USSR, Kyrgyzstan had a

coat of arms similar to all other Soviet Republics. Like other post-Soviet republics whose arms do not predate the October Revolution
, the current emblem retains some components of the Soviet one, in this case, the wheat, cotton, rising sun and the panoramic view of the Ala-Too mountains.
