The Highlights
FEDERAL STATES OF GERMANY
History and Modernity
Coats of arms in Germany are more than just a beautiful tradition; they are an ancient system of power, status, and local pride. Long before the emergence of a unified Germany, the fate of the country was determined by seven prince-electors (Kurfürst), each with their own coat of arms, rights, and territory. Their election was a sacred act, and the symbols on their shields were symbols of supreme legitimacy. So, each time you see not just decoration, but a living echo of those times when coats of arms determined the emperor and the history of power.
