A coat of arms is a unique heraldic design on an escutcheon (i.e. shield), surcoat, or tabard. The coat of arms on an escutcheon forms the central element of the full heraldic achievement which consists of shield, supporters, crest, and motto. The design is a symbol unique to an individual person or family (except in the UK), corporation, or state.
The ancient Romans used similar insignia on their shields, but these identified military units rather than individuals. The first evidence of medieval coats of arms is found in the 11th century Bayeux Tapestry in which some of the combatants carry shields painted with crosses. Coats of arms came into general use by feudal lords and knights in battle in the 12th century. By the 13th century, arms had spread beyond their initial battlefield use to become a flag or emblem for families in the higher social classes of Europe, inherited from one generation to the next. Exactly who had a right to use arms, by law or social convention, varied to some degree between countries. In the German-speaking regions both the aristocracy and "burghers" (non-noble free citizens) used arms, while in most of the rest of Europe they were limited to the aristocracy. The use of arms spread to the clergy, to towns as civic identifiers, and to royally chartered organizations such as universities and trading companies. Flags developed from coats of arms, and the arts of vexillology and heraldry are closely related. The coats of arms granted to commercial companies are a major source of the modern logo.

The Greco-Italian War was a conflict between Fascist Kindom of Italy and the Kingdom of Greece (Hellas) during World War Two which lasted from 28 October 1940 to 23 April 1941. Only by the German intervention in the Balkans Campaign the war was decited in the favour of the Axis Powers. This song draws a parallel to the Battle of Thermopylae in the Greco-Persian Wars 480 BC, when among others 300 Spartiates under king Leonidas faced Xerxes I of Persia and his armies. Ohi Day (in the song "No-day", also spelled Ochi Day, Greek: Επέτειος του «'Οχι» Epeteios tou "'Ohi", Anniversary of the "No") is celebrated throughout Greece on October 28 each year, to commemorate Greek Prime Minister Ioannis Metaxas' rejection of the ultimatum made by Italian dictator Benito Mussolini on October 28, 1940. ...
The Coat of Arms, often called a family crest, is very misunderstood. So what is a coat of arms? How can you get one? And what does it all mean?

Some basics about Armorial Achievements, often mistakenly referred to as a Coat Of Arms or even more incorrectly a Family Crest. Watch the video to find out why that is incorrect.

Parts of Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones spliced with Sabaton's Coat of Arms.
This is the raw version of the video to Sabaton's "Coat Of Arms"-single released 2010. Drawn/animated/edited by yours truly. Due to unfortunate events I could not deliver the material in time for the release of the single but I am happy to see it was rectified with the release of the World War Live: Battle of the Baltic Sea DVD Kudos Sabaton. Disclaimer: Keep in mind that events portrayed in this video are a simplification of reality and that every person killed in battle is a tragedy no matter who holds his strings. Resistance is admirable and unjust aggression is always doomed when forced upon free men. Heroism lives in the heart regardless of nationality or creed. Be excellent unto each other.

We need to get on all Coat of Arms that YHWH want us to put on!
This is a direct rip of the Game of Thrones Season One soundtrack CD, and an updated version of my two hour video with more coats of arms. I've arranged them in roughly this order: most important in the story, then the most powerful houses by region. Every 1:40 the song repeats, and the coat of arms changes. These coats of arms are credit of: http://www.westeros.org/Citadel/Heraldry/

That dawn, envoy arrives
Morning of October 28th
No day, proven by deed
Descendence of Sparta,
Athens and Crete!
Look north, ready to fight
Enemies charge from the hills
To arms, facing defeat
There's no surrender,
there's no retreat
Time after time,
force their enemies back to the line
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
Blood of king Leonidas
Air raid, pounding the land
Bombers are flying both day and night
Endure, six days of rain
Dropped by invaders,
bomb raid in vain
Strike hard, the tables have turned,
Drive them back over the hills
At arms, just like before,
Soldiers, civilians, Hellas at war
By their own hand,
force their enemy out of their land
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
Blood of king Leonidas
Just like their ancestors ages ago
Fought in the place of the greeks
Cause we will remember what the place were called
Freedom or death in the plains
Just like their ancestors ages ago
Fought in the face of defeat
Those three hundred men left a pride to uphold
Freedom or death in effect
Then, now again
Blood of heroes saving their land
Call to Arms banners fly in the wind,
For the glory of Hellas
Coat of Arms reading freedom or death,
