Английская Википедия:Coat of arms of Central Lithuania
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox coat of arms
The coat of arms of the Republic of Central Lithuania, an unrecognized short-lived puppet republic of Poland, was established on 12 October 1920 and remained in use until 18 April 1922, when the state ceased to exist.[1]
Design
The coat of arms was officially defined as an eagle and Pahonia (a knight on a horse) in the escutcheon.[2] It consists of 2 charges set next to each other. On the right is a silver (white) eagle wearing a crown, and on the left, a silver (white) Pahonia, a charge, that consists of a knight with a sword in his right hand, and a shield with the Cross of Lorraine in his left hand, that is sitting on a jumping horse. Both charges are placed within the red escutcheon with a silver (white) edge. [1] Its design referred to the coat of arms used by the Polish National Government during the November Uprising, in 1831.[3]
History
The coat of arms was established as the symbol of the state, on 12 November 1920, in the Decree No. 1 of the Chief-in-command of the Army of Central Lithuania.[4] The coat of arms stopped being used after the Republic of Central Lithuania was incorporated into Poland on 18 April 1922.
