Blue Sky with a White Sun
[citation needed] The national emblem of the Republic of China was derived from the Blue Sky with a White Sun flag.It was designed by Lu Xun, Qian Daosun and Xu Shoushang on August 28, 1912, and was set as national emblem in February 1913.Since the ROC government moved to Taiwan and especially in the years since the end of martial law the KMT flag has lost some of its prominence.[9] The emblem was worn as an official clothing of the Governor's Office in Taiwan which featured a Daijishō with a Sycamore leaf and chrysanthemum branch in a brown circle.[10] After the end of Japanese period, Taiwan was transferred to the Republic of China which adopted the Blue Sky with a White Sun emblem.After the People's Republic of China became an IOC member, the ROC was forced to use the name Chinese Taipei for its competitions.
