How to draw the flag of Tajikistan
The flag of Tajikistan is three equal horizontal bands — red, white and green from top to bottom, with crown and seven stars. It flies at a ratio of 1:2.
Step by step
- Start with the right shape. Tajikistan flies at 1:2 — for every 2 units of width the flag is 1 tall. Sketch that rectangle first; a flag drawn too square is the fastest way to lose layout points.
- Divide the height into three. Mark two guide lines before you fill anything in. Even bands matter more than neat edges — the scorer cares where the colour blocks sit.
- Band 1: red. Fill the first band from the top with red. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Band 2: white. Fill the second band from the top with white. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Band 3: green. Fill the third band from the top with green. Use the fill tool rather than shading — flat blocks score better than sketchy strokes.
- Finish with the crown and seven stars. Detail is the last ten percent of the score, so leave it until the colour blocks are down. Size and position count for more than drawing every line of it.

Common mistakes
- Watch out for Iran and Hungary — they are close enough to Tajikistan that people draw the wrong one from memory.
- Colour order is where most people slip. Fix which colour touches the top — that one anchor keeps the rest in place.
A trick for remembering it
Lock in the order — red, white then green — from the top down. Say it out loud once and you will still have it tomorrow.
