"Bloody Horse" national stamp:
In the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Uzbekistan is a landlocked country that does not have the same border with our country. In ancient my country, it was called Dawan. In the TV series "Emperor of the Han Dynasty", Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che's pursuit of Dawan's bloody horse left a deep impression on the audience. "Historical Records" records: Liu Che called the sweat-blooded horse "Tianma". After King Dawan knew that Chinese emperors liked sweat-blooded horses, they often used sweat-blooded horses as tribute until the Western Jin Dynasty. I have a set of seven "Equestrian" stamps issued by Uzbekistan in 2002. Now choose one of them for everyone to appreciate the expression of this excellent horse breed.
In the collection, there is a series of stamps in the "National Costumes" of the former Soviet Union, issued in 1961, with a face value of 60 kopecks, showing Uzbeks wearing national costumes. Perhaps coincidentally, the Russian word Uzbek consists of two words: "self" and "rule" The word is composed of "ruling oneself", which means "independence". In 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed, they declared independence and established the Republic of Korea.
Now that a country becomes independent, it must formulate a national flag. I have a collection of stamps commemorating the "First Anniversary of the Founding of Uzbekistan" in 1992. The main image is the flag of independent Uzbekistan. The stamp states that the country was founded on September 1, 1991. In the "World Atlas" published by my country Map Publishing House, it was said that it became independent on August 31, 1991, which is one day different. Perhaps the former is the date of declaration and the stamp is the official date of independence. As a general rule, the date printed on the stamp shall prevail.
The Chinese pomegranate is called An pomegranate. It was brought back from Anshi State by Zhang Qian on his mission to the Western Regions. Anshiguo in ancient books refers to two places: "Anguo" is the ancient city of Bukhara in southern Uzbekistan; "Shiguo" is Tashkent, the current capital of Uzbekistan. "History of the Yuan Dynasty" calls Uzbek "Yuezubie" or "Yuejibie", which is close to the modern name of Uzbekistan.
The collection includes a set of "Flowers" stamps issued by the country in 1993. The first one bears the scientific name of the flower "Uzbek Dianthus". It shows that it is native to Uzbekistan. In fact, there are many types of dianthus, and some are also native to China. It is common in Shanghai and is commonly known as "Luoyang flower".
In 1995, Uzbekistan issued the "spiral-horned ibex" as a protected wild animal. A complete set of four stamps. Each stamp bears the emblem of the International Wildlife Conservation Foundation: a panda and the foundation's abbreviation WWF. Chinese stamp collectors gave this emblem a nice name "Panda Emblem". Due to space limitations, I will introduce two of them. The face value 6 U.S. dollar depicts a standing spiral-horned ibex and its living environment. The stamp with a face value of 10 U.S. dollars is a close-up of the wild goat's head: it has strange spiral horns.
