The circular disposition of states in the stars, symbolizing the EU, the separation from one another by small stars shows that those countries are going to live by the community rules of that big family, closely cooperating with one another, also within the scope of integration of the South Caucasus. In order not to show preference to any of the three countries by this or that criterion, the names are written according to geographical position.
