Emblema Mundi is an interactive map cataloguing the coats of arms, heraldic symbols, and emblems of hundreds of countries, regions, and territories around the world. With a single click, discover the heraldic symbols that represent each nation, province, and administrative subdivision.
Heraldry is the art and science of coats of arms. Born in medieval Western Europe, it spread across the entire world to become a universal visual language of territorial identity. Every coat of arms tells a story — of a people, a dynasty, a culture.
On Emblema Mundi, you can explore the coats of arms of Europe — from major nations down to the smallest NUTS regions —, the emblems of the 50 US states, the symbols of the 47 Japanese prefectures, the heraldry of Brittany's traditional pays, the territories of the Holy Roman Empire, the Indian states, Brazilian states, Scottish clans, and the mythological journey of Odysseus.
Whether you are a heraldry enthusiast, a history student, a researcher, or simply curious, Emblema Mundi offers an intuitive and visual way to explore the world's symbolic heritage. The interactive map lets you navigate seamlessly from one continent to another, from a country to a region, to discover coats of arms and their meanings.
Emblema Mundi is an independent passion project, under active development. New regions are regularly added: Norway, Switzerland, Hungary, Ukraine, United Kingdom, Brazil... Follow our progress on Twitter / X and support the project if you enjoy it.
