On 20 July 2004 , the Supreme Council of the Ajaria n Autonomous Republic, Georgia ratified a new flag for the region. The flag has seven dark blue and white stripes, and in the upper corner the national Flag Of Georgia with the five red crosses representing the Holy Wounds . The dark blue strips symbolize the sea whereas the white stripes symbolize purity. FORMER FLAGS Between June 2000 and July 2004, a different flag was used by the government of Aslan Abashidze . The blue background represent the Black Sea , while the seven stars represent Ajaria's two cities (Batumi and Kobuleti) and five districts (Batumi, Kobuleti, Keda, Shuakhevi, Khulo). Under the Soviet Union , the Ajarian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic had its own flag between 1921 - 1950 and again between 1978 and 1991 . This consisted of a motif very similar to that of the parent Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic, plus the initials of the AASSR in Georgian . SOURCE
