It's said that a ROSE is the symbol of love, white color stands for peace, Venus is principally symbolize friendship, kindness and a lot more. But have you ever though what can be the symbol of a country? You may say it's flag , language, culture, customs, architechture, etc. They all could be considered as symbols for a country, but you may get excited as gentlewomen do knowing that each country has 3 main symbols. They're derived from 3 sources in nature; sky, plants, and animal.

Do you know what are these 3 symbols in your country? Just yesterday in linguistic class, we got to know ours. Since ancient times in zeorastrian era, sun has been sacred so we, the iranians, got it as our symbol in sky. Lion is our animal sign cause it symbolize wisdom. Hyacinth which we put it on our new year table ,as we said before, is our symbol in plants. So the 3 symbols for Iran are sun, lion, and hyancinth. These signs are national symbol of a country and it's not related to any special dynasty or period. You can see 2 out of these 3 signs in our flag.
