The Russian Navy Ensign ((ロシア語:''Андреевский флаг''); Russian Pre-reform: ''Андреевскій флагъ'') was the ensign of the Navy of the Russian Empire (from 1712 to 1918), and is the naval flag of the Russian Federation and the banner of the Navy of the Russian Federation (since 1992). The St Andrew's flag has a white background with two blue diagonal bands, forming a saltire, called St Andrew's Cross. The ratio of the flag's width to its length is 1 / 1.5, the width of the blue band is 1 / 10 the length of the flag. == History == In 1698, Peter I the Great established the first Russian medal, the Order of St Andrew, which is to be awarded for military exploits and public service. When Peter I became tsar, he started to devise a flag for the Russian Navy. The symbolism of the flag is a tribute to his father, Alexey Mikhaylovich Romanov who established a special flag for the first Russian naval vessel, the three-masted frigate ''Oryol''. From 1692 to 1712, Peter I personally drew eight flags projects that have consistently been taken into the Navy. Description of the flag's final version by Peter I: Original Text (Orthography and font (ru) are also original): After the Russian revolution, the Russian Navy Ensign was changed, but it was used by the White Army up to 1924. The flag of St Andrew was reintroduced in the Russian Navy in 1992, and is still used today. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Russian Navy Ensign」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
