The Emblem of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was the official symbol of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic (Bashkir ASSR), a constituent republic of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) within the Soviet Union. The emblem was adopted in 1937 and was used until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.

Design[edit | edit source]

The emblem of the Bashkir ASSR was based on the emblem of the Soviet Union, featuring elements that symbolized the agricultural and industrial strength of the republic. The central element of the emblem was a hammer and sickle, representing the unity of the workers and peasants. Surrounding the hammer and sickle were sheaves of wheat, which symbolized the agricultural richness of the region.

At the top of the emblem was a red star, a common symbol of communism and socialism. Below the hammer and sickle, there was a rising sun, symbolizing the bright future of the Soviet people. The emblem also included a ribbon with the motto "Workers of the world, unite!" in both the Russian and Bashkir languages.

Historical Context[edit | edit source]

The Bashkir ASSR was established in 1919 as part of the RSFSR. The emblem was introduced in 1937, during a period of significant political and social change in the Soviet Union. The design of the emblem reflected the ideals of the Soviet state, emphasizing the importance of unity, progress, and the collective strength of the people.

Changes and Evolution[edit | edit source]

Over the years, the emblem underwent several modifications, particularly in the text and the arrangement of elements. However, the core symbols, such as the hammer and sickle, the red star, and the wheat sheaves, remained consistent throughout its use.

Legacy[edit | edit source]

The emblem of the Bashkir ASSR was used until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. After the dissolution, the Bashkir ASSR was transformed into the Republic of Bashkortostan, and a new emblem was adopted to reflect the republic's new status and identity.
