Assad regime is no more.

A huge and historic event with far reaching consequences.

Syrians now have a great opportunity to rebuild their country which was hijacked and destroyed by Assad's dynasty.

An interesting stamp

This one was released in Syria prior to the formation of the UAR in 1958.
Syria back then was called The Syrian Republic and as you can see the French name of the country is printed. (R. Syrienne)

It was then used during the UAR time as can be seen in the red inked stamp
