Vietnam National Flag
The national flag of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is rectangular in shape; its width being equal to two-thirds of its length, in the middle of a red background is a yellow star. The red flag with yellow star appeared for the first time in the Nam Ky revolt (23 November 1940). This flag was recognized as the National flag of Vietnam by the Decree signed by President Ho Chi Minh on 5 September 1945 and the adoption by the National Assembly at the first session of its first Legislature on 2 March 1946.
