	About That Coat of Arms
		Often we speak of a "crest" when we mean an "achievement." The coat of arms itself is the "shield" or "escutcheon." It represents an ancient piece of defensive armor on the face of which, known as the field, are emblazoned the charges or bearings in definite fixed colors.
		Arms are not a necessity; consequently, since no one is compelled to use them there is not one single solitary position in life which demands the personal use of a coat of arms.
		In using coats of arms, we should abide by the laws governing its use in the country in which the arms were granted.

		It seems like for every coat of arms they have a helmet in the middle and then just vary the pattern around it for the different names.
		In little more than three decades the countries of northwestern Europe (including Britain, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Sweden and Norway) acquired populations of non-European immigrants that are too large for the native populations to assimilate without negating or destroying their racial identity.
		If their commitment to multiracialism and racial nihilism remains unchanged, and recent demographic trends in immigration, differential birthrates and racial intermixture continue, one can project that by the year 2100 the remnants of the native populations of northwest Europe will be too small to constitute a viable continuation of their previous existence.
