The Coat of Arms of Eritrea was adopted 24 May 1993, the date of the declaration of independence from Ethiopia. It shows a scene of a dromedary camel in natural colors on a white field surrounded by an olive wreath. On the bottom is a scroll with the name of the state written threefold, once in each of the three official languages; as "ሃገረ ኤርትራ" in Tigrinya, as "The State of Eritrea" in English and in Arabic as "دولة إرتريا،". [edit] HistoryAs an Italian colonial province Eritrea was assigned a coat of arms in 1919 that was parted horizontally, with the top half white with a red lion that was charged with a small white star on his breast and the bottom half divided into six wavy bars alternating blue and white. During the Fascist regime of Italy, beginning in 1926, a red chief with the fasces and laurel wreath were added, and then promptly removed in 1941 when the colony was liberated. The original design was then in use again until 1952, when Eritrea was annexed into Ethiopia and the European heraldic custom was dropped from use. During the annexation period, from 1952 to 1962, an emblem was employed that consisted of a vertical olive branch encircled by an olive wreath to symbolize the Eritrea region.[1] [edit] See also[edit] References
