Banimacia – The People of Ararat

The People of Ararat

In 1918, the coat of arms of the Republic of Armenia was created, in the center of which was depicted Mount Ararat, the symbol of the Armenian people and the Armenian land. And even during the Soviet years, no one could force us to abandon our main national symbol. Because we, Armenians, are the people of Ararat.

How was the coat of arms of the Republic of Armenia created? Who were its authors? What idea does the coat of arms of Armenia carry and what do its elements symbolize?
