James Minahan’s Nations Without States
[mnh96],
says that after the Bolshevik Far East
republic was established (6 April 1920), Far Eastern areas with an
ethnic Ukrainian majority attempted to secede and establish an
entity called Green Ukraine. The movement quickly proved
abortive.
Ned Smith, 23 Feb 2001
In “Flags of Non-Russian Peoples Under Soviet Rule” by Prof. Walter
Trembicky [tbc69], pages 134 and 135,
it mentions two proposed flags for Green Ukraine, or the Ukrainian Far
East, neither of which was officially adopted, since the movement
quickly proved abortive. There are simple black & white line drawings
illustrating the two proposed flags on p. 133 of
[tbc69].
The green in the two flags was described as dark or deep green.
Ned Smith, 24 Feb 2001
The author of the article [tbc69]
cited as sources for these two flags «reports from refugees», so perhaps
the drawings are only his reconstructions from verbal reports and not
based on actual specifications or images.

One [of the two proposed flags] was the Ukrainian
blue-over-gold bicolor with a green triangle at the hoist.
Ned Smith, 24 Feb 2001
The drawings in the article show the first flag proposal as a 2:3
flag, with the triangle extending from the hoist half the length of
the flag.

Could this have been the remote origin of the current
Khabaraovsk region flag?…
António Martins, 24 Oct 2002
The other [of the two proposed flags] was a green flag with the
Ukrainian blue/gold bicolor in the canton.
Ned Smith, 24 Feb 2001
The second drawing also shows a 2:3 flag, with a Ukrainian bicolor
in the canton. The canton is, one half the length and one half the height
of the flag.
