Coat of arms of Croatia (State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs) - Pint Glass 16oz

The Coat of Arms of Croatia, historically known as the State of Slovenes, Croats, and Serbs, is an official heraldic symbol representing the Croatian state. This coat of arms, featuring a shield divided into three parts, is one of the oldest symbols in Europe with continuous use dating back to the 10th century. The uppermost part shows a red and white checkerboard pattern (Chequy of France), a historical symbol associated with Croatia since the 10th century. The middle part displays three overlapping, six-pointed silver stars (Tricolor) representing the three historic Croatian lands: Croatia Proper, Dalmatia, and Slavonia. The lowest part features a white and red field, known as the Arms of Croatia in the Field of Krapina. The coat of arms served as the national symbol during the union with Hungary (1102-1918) and has been officially adopted by the modern Republic of Croatia since 1990, symbolizing unity, heritage, and the enduring spirit of the Croatian people.
