Country
The national flag of Montenegro has a red field with gold border and the coat of arms of Montenegro in its center. It was officially adopted on 13 July 2004, when the then Republic of Montenegro was a constituent of the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, and its precise specification was standardized on 16 September 2004. The flag was retained after Montenegrin independence from Serbia in 2006, and mandated by Article 4 of the Constitution of Montenegro adopted in 2007.
The coat of arms of Montenegro was officially adopted by the law passed in the Parliament on 12 July 2004. It is now the central motif of the flag of Montenegro, as well as the coat of arms of the Armed Forces of Montenegro. The coat of arms of Montenegro was designed by the Montenegrin artist Radoslav Rotković on 2004 and then constitutionally sanctioned by the Constitution proclaimed on 2 October 2007.
Beyond the national coat of arms, Montenegro is divided into regions and provinces, each carrying its own heraldic identity. Click on Montenegro on the interactive map to explore its administrative subdivisions and discover the coats of arms of each region, province, and territory.
