Krasnoyarsk unilaterally upgraded its status to that of a
republic in 1992.
Stuart Notholt, 26 Sep 1995
Khakassia was one of the parts
of the Krasnoyarsk region two years ago. Now it is not.
Larisa Voloshenko, 19 Mar 1998
16th April 2000 Aleksander Lebed, governer of Krasnoyarsk Kray, sign the
law about the flag of Kray. As in many regions, it is red rectangular red
field with coat-of-arms in the center (in red field a golden
lion with a shovel in the right hand and sickle in the left hand) (Arms of
Krasnoyarsk on the flag with golden leaves and ribbon).
Jaume Ollé, 07 May 2000 and 12 May 2000
The height of the arms is equal to 2/5ths of the flag height (according
the Law No. 10-701). Third small shield above the main shield must be silver
(not red).

The contest terminated on the last day of 1997, and
since first prize was ten million rubles
I suppose they rendered judgment, but the
http://www.chat.ru/~heraldica/
site does not give us either the jury's award or a
legislative ratification.

Please note that the values given
are in old roubles: On Jan 1st 1998 the rouble was
devalued 1000 fold, being one new rouble equivalent to
1000 old roubles (it was also equivalent to one US dollar
— now it is worth four cents...) All this meaning that
the first prize was worth approx. 1000 USD.

![[Krasnoyarsk region CoA]](../images/r/ru)kya.gif)
This territory’s coat of arms is different from the historical Krasnoyarsk
city coat of arms (shield on the city flag).
On Rocich’s site, it
is described as being «в
червленом
поле поверх
лазоревого, ...»
(red, on a fess azure — RSFSR nostalgy?).
The description follows, by the way,
«смещенного
вправо и
тонко
окаймленного
золотом
столба, —
золотой лев,
держащий в
правой
передней
лапе золотую
лопату, а в
левой —
золотой серп.»
(a standing lion holding spade in his right and a sickle in his left paw,
all golden)
— this part is identical to the historical city arms. Follows the crest and
wreath: «Щит увенчан
пьедесталом
с орденскими
лентами,
окружен
золотыми
дубовыми
листьями и
кедровыми
ветками,
соединенными
голубой
лентой.»
(crest is a pedestal with order ribbons and wreath of golden oak and cedar
leaves draped with a light blue ribbon).

In 1992 or 1993 some regions self upgraded to constituent republics, and
used ephemeral unofficial flags. One of the main republics was Yenissei Republic
(Krasnoyarsk terr.), flag vertical red - yellow - red..
Jaume Ollé, 15 Apr 2000
I’m sure that this flag is a fiction. I don’t know who is
author... It was adopted never and existed never.
Victor Lomantsov, 17 Apr 2000
Adopted May 12 1995.

The flag based on seal of 1655. You may see the seal at my site,
here.
