The [[Jewish Autonomous Oblast]] has a flag with a seven-colour rainbow. The number of colours is meant to symbolize the seven-branched Jewish [[Menorah (Temple)|Menorah]]. Its colours are slightly different from the basic spectral colours, with gold in place of yellow, vivid blue instead of light blue, and indigo as dark blue.<ref>{{cite web |title=Символика |url=http://www.eao.ru/o-eao/simvolika--1/ |publisher=Official State Portal of Jewish Autonomous Oblast |access-date=10 June 2020 |language=ru |trans-title=Geraldics |archive-date=8 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200608173925/http://www.eao.ru/o-eao/simvolika--1/ |url-status=live }}</ref> In 2013, the flag was checked according to the [[Russian gay propaganda law]].
