The change in coat of arms actually improved Greenlands position. They previously shared a square with the Faroe Islands. Both now have their own square
It could be seen as a move to please Greenland, as they have long been wanted independence, but they lack the economy for it
Ami saw the new coat of arms. As a stupid American with no knowledge of your country and history…
I think it was a good choice even if this didn’t happen.
Again, I have no idea about the history…
It looked like two weird lion things in square one, then repeated in square two. Then like one squiggly lion thing in the forth square… The third square was a cramped partition of multiple symbols.
Again, don’t know the history. I’m sure the repeated squigly lions ment something meaningful. Visually the coat of arms look better now.
I also have a lot of opinions on my state flag tho (Florida) what the fuck is with that steam boat? Are steam boats important to Florida? I’ve just got opinions on how these things look. It doesn’t mean anything insulting to your country.
Totally agree, that it looks cleaner. It’s the royal coat of arms, so it doesn’t represent Denmark as a nation, only the royal family.
I’m not very royally inclined, so whatever you say about their coat of arms have no effect on me. I see them at best, as a very expensive PR team for the nation, or if I was to put it in a mean way, a very expensive social welfare program
The state version is a simpler version of crowned shield.
The three lions are known to be used for 800+ years
As for the steamboat in the flag of Florida: I’m sure people also would protest if it was updated to a cruise ship 😛
