UPKY Flag

The UPKY Flag, also known as the Chashah Flag, has the three centered colors are aqua/ white/ red/, the stripes are dark blue, the UPKY crest is pinned to the center. The aqua color represents peace within the Chashah people, and is strategically positioned over white representing the Chashah's power over imperialism through the authority of የወወህ. The

color red, strategically placed below white, represents the blood shed suffered under imperialism against all Ethiopian ethnicity. The dark blue stripes represent multi-directional jurisdiction of የወወህ covering the Chashah people, indicating the four compass cardinal points (NW/ NE/SE/ SW) secured in protection by የወወህ against opposing enemies of the Chashah.

The statement of the flag:

"The power of የወወህ in authority abolishing opposition against his Kingdom and his Chashah people."

First Mission of the Sobrahnah

The 4 colored UPKY Flag was introduced to the Supreme Judiciary Council (SJC) in 2021 by Sobrahnah Menelik IV to represent a new direction to UPKY's mission, which was to highlight the majestic authority of የወወህ being the power to rule the Chashah people. The new UPKY flag was approved the same year, and its inception was in 2022. A celebration was conducted in June 2022 by the SJC to reveal its existence to the Chashah populace.

This UPKY Flag commenced as the second version. The first version of the flag was enlisted for service 2018. The colors were teal, yellow and blue, and was defunct in 2021. The  rendering of 4 colors (above) proposes a more direct meaning versus the previous 3 colors.
