The Tricolour Burmese: သုံးရောင်ခြယ် (lit. 'three colour painted') originally refers to the flag of Dobama Asiayone (which had two variants).[1] The first (1935) version of the Tricolour was used as the national flag of the State of Burma.[2] The current flag of Myanmar (since 2010) uses the tricolour background to indicate the magnificence of the Tricolour flag.[3]
Its background is the tricolour of yellow, green and red. For the central symbol, there is two variants; the peacock (in 1935 version), and the hammer and sickle (in 1938 version).[4] There are two songs with the same name သုံးရောင်ခြယ်သီချင်း (meaning: Tricolour Song), composed by two different composers, composed about the meaning behind the Tricolour symbolisation and the hope of Burmese people.
The Tricolour, since 1935, originally included the peacock in the centre. Then, in 1938, the peacock was replaced by the hammer and sickle.
