The Coat of Arms of Yemen depicts a golden eagle with a scroll between its claws. On the scroll is written the name of the country in Arabic: الجمهورية اليمنية or Al-Jumhuriyyah Al-Yamaniyah ("The Yemeni Republic"). The chest of the eagle contains a shield that depicts a coffee plant and the Marib Dam, that are below four blue and three wavy stripes. The flagstaffs on the right and left of the eagle hold the Flag of Yemen.

[edit] Historical coats of arms

From 1945 to 1990, Yemen was split into North and South. The North had a coat of arms more similar to the present day one, and its shield has similarities with the shield of the former Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen. The South had a coat of arms with the pan-Arab "Eagle of Saladin" (similar to the coats of arms of Egypt, Iraq, and Syria).
