<br />
==Significance==<br />
Druk is a Bhutanese national symbol, and therefore very significant in Bhutan. It is central on the [[Flag of Bhutan|Bhutanese Flag]], holding jewels to represent wealth. [[Dzongkha language|Dzongkha]] (is the official language of Bhutan), Bhutan is called Druk Yul, or Land of Druk. The Bhutanese leaders are known as [[King of Bhutan|Druk Gyalpo]] - Dragon Kings - because of Druk. During the [[Bhutanese general election, 2008|Bhutanese mock election in 2007]], all four mock parties were called the ''Druk colour Party''<ref>Every party had a separate colour representing its values.</ref>. The [[national anthem]] of Bhutan, Druk Tsendhen, translates into [[English Language|English]] as 'The Kingdom of Druk'.<br />
