Emblem of the Crown of the United Kingdom

The Royal Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom features a central shield representing the union of the kingdoms: England, Scotland, and Ireland. It is flanked by two symbolic figures: on the left, a crowned lion for England, and on the right, a chained unicorn for Scotland.

Around the shield is the Garter of the Order of the Garter, bearing the motto 'Honi soit qui mal y pense.' The whole is topped by a helmet, a crown, and a crowned lion, symbols of the British monarchy. Below, a banner displays the royal motto 'Dieu et mon droit,' while floral elements recall the nations of the United Kingdom, such as the English rose, the Scottish thistle, and the Irish shamrock.
