Flags of the Soviet Republics
Flags of the Soviet Socialist Republics all featured predominantly red flag with hammer and sickle that both symbolised communism, quite similar to the flag of the Soviet Union. Their final versions prior to the dissolution of the USSR in 1991 looked like this:
 Flag of Russian SFSR |  Flag of Ukrainian SSR |  Flag of Byelorussian SSR |
 Flag of Uzbek SSR |  Flag of Kazakh SSR |  Flag of Georgian SSR |
 Flag of Azerbaijan SSR |  Flag of Lithuanian SSR |  Flag of Moldavian SSR |
 Flag of Latvian SSR |  Flag of Kyrgyz SSR |  Flag of Tajik SSR |
 Flag of Armenian SSR |  Flag of Turkmen SSR |  Flag of Estonian SSR |
 Flag of Karelo-Finnish SSR |  Flag of Transcaucasian SFSR |
The official flags of the Autonomous Socialist Soviet Republics (ASSR) were seldom used, and were simply the flag of the republic to which the ASSR belonged defaced with the ASSR name in its own language(s) and the official language of the SSR.
Nowadays the former Soviet Union territories that use modified versions of their original soviet flag are the unrecognized republic of Transnistria (former region of Moldavian SSR) and Belarus (since 1995).
