The star, also seen in the flag,
has the same meaning, namely,
the eight different branches of the Turkic people.
This eight-pointed star framed by gold,
is superimposed on three circles:
the inner one is green,
the middle one is red,
and the outer one is blue.
These colors match the flag colors.
Between each star point, on the blue circle,
there are also smaller gold-framed eight-pointed stars.
Inside the main central star there is a fire.
The fire recalls the country's other name: Land of fire.
This fire symbolizes also freedom. The shield stands on a golden ear of corn.
