The rule of law implies that all individuals, as subjects of law, are equal before the law in terms of their rights and obligations, as well as in the limitations imposed on certain forms of behavior. This equality and these limitations should not discriminate on any national, religious, gender, or official basis. The subject of this paper is a comparative analysis of the rule of law in North Macedonia and Serbia, conducted through an examination of the implementation of constitutional and legal regulations regarding the use of state symbols and community symbols. The aim of the research is to determine whether the application of these principles is in accordance with the rule of law. Practice shows that the rule of law is not always fully implemented in either case. The use of official authority and the free will of individuals can be regarded as among the causes of non-compliance with the rule of law. In the conclusion, two assessments are offered: one concerning the adequacy of the existing regulation and the other proposing possible future solutions that would be in accordance with the rule of law.
