Coat Of Arms Of San Marino
The coat of arms of San Marino probably originated in the fourteenth century. The official establishment took place on 6 April 1862 by a Decree of the Supreme Council; the same act introduced the crown on top of the shield. There is little evidence regarding the official design until the mid-20th century. " The Flag Bulletin" vol. III, no. 2 from the winter of 1963–64 is reproducing on page 31 an ''"official plate showing the flag and arms of San Marino, hichwas a gift of the Sammarinese government, through its Consul in New York City."'' This plate was previously published in an official guide of the republic, from March 1963. In 2011, a new ''Law on the flag and coat of arms of San Marino'' presented a slightly simplified design, the main changes being that the branches have no more ramifications, the towers are square instead of round, and the gates are oriented now towards ''sinister''. The coat of arms of San Marino adorns among other things the flag of the country and th ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Saint Marinus
Marinus (; ) was an Early Christian and the founder of a chapel and monastery in 301 from whose initial community the state of San Marino later grew. Life Tradition holds that he was a stonemason by trade who came from the island of Arba (today Rab), on the other side of the Adriatic Sea (in what is now part of modern-day Croatia, then part of the Roman Empire), fleeing persecution for his Christian beliefs in the Diocletianic Persecution. Known only by the single name ''Marinus'' (lit. of the sea), he was ordained a deacon by Gaudentius of Rimini; later, he was recognised and accused by an insane woman of being her estranged husband, so he quickly fled to Monte Titano to build a chapel-monastery and live as a hermit.Radovan Radovinovič, ''The Croatian Adriatic Tourist Guide'', p. 127, Zagreb (1999), Another version of the story says that hearing that the town of Rimini (Italy) was being rebuilt, he travelled there and was astonished to find among the workmen many Chri ...

Crown (heraldry)
A crown is often an emblem of a sovereign state, usually a monarchy (see The Crown), but also used by some republics. A specific type of crown is employed in heraldry under strict rules. Indeed, some monarchies never had a physical Crown (headgear), crown, just a heraldic representation, as in the constitutional kingdom of Belgium. Crowns are also often used as symbols of religious status or veneration, by divinities (or their representation such as a statue) or by their representatives, e.g. the Black Crown of the Karmapa, Karmapa Lama, sometimes used a model for wider use by devotees. A crown can be a charge (heraldry), charge ''in'' a coat of arms, or set ''atop'' the shield to signify the status of its owner, as with the coat of arms of Norway. Physical and heraldic crowns Sometimes, the crown commonly depicted and used in heraldry differs significantly from any specific physical crown that may be used by a monarchy. As a display of rank If the bearer of a coat of arms ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
