Shields of most noted historical personages

[unmerged(30948)]

I realized how many members know modified scenarios well.
It needs right position as period and right evaluation
of events and leaders of the Countries.
Technology & Stability? Reforms & Government?
Who combined them in the best way for his historical period?
I haven't many of those personal banners,
so I demand (Who gets them) to edit a reply,
anyway also even if the personages are out of EU II's timeframe.
Thank all of You.

Emperor Napoleon's eagle

If I must the 1st reply, it's logic to choose the Man that deranged continental Europe for several years. He didn't accept the regular flow of the events and wanted to leave his vestige there. Also a typhoon cleans the air of the city, but which are its remnants?

The shield of ERIC XIII

This one is the personal shield of king Eric XIII. He leaded the Union of Calmar, an alliance that failed to create the Reign of North. The States are deduced from their shields: Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and ...

 

[Mad King James]

It's actually Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Pommerania and the triple-crown of the union.

 

[Birger]

That coat of arms is all wrong, Erik of Pommern arms looked like this:

1st quarter: Denmark
2nd quarter: Sweden
3rd quarter: Denmark
4th quarter: Norway

In escutcheon Pommern.

 

[Hive]

Erik of Pommern was an idiot...

If only Margrete could have lived a couple of hundred years insted...

 

[Birger]

Erik of Pommern was an idiot...

Yeah he sure was, he favored Denmark over Sweden and Norway!

The coat of arms of Oliver Cromwell

Even if corrected last time, now EV presents the personal shield of Oliver Cromwell, virtually king of England from 1649 to 1658.

[|AXiN|]

Lord Protector, not King. The whole point was that he wasn't a king.

 

[unmerged(30948)]

Excuse me, does a Man become King only because of dynastic reasons?
Not all.
I wrote "virtually" by the English Parliament, as C. Julius Caesar in the Roman Senatus and Wilhelm III Orange in England.

 

[|AXiN|]

No, but to be a king, you have to, well, be a king. William Oranje, iirc, was a King. Julius Caesar was not. Oliver Cromwell was not. To say that they are is like saying Vladimir Putin is King of Russia.

king Henry VIII Tudor

@Axin: You're attentive, thx. But I would be more happy if You could insert one. This topic isn't a personal one.
The single motto and the ornamental animals can be different, but the Tudors on the throne of England had the same shield in the middle:

Well, quite wrong:

top left: Denmark
top right: Svealand
bottom left: Götaland
bottom right: Pommern/Pommerania
shield: Norway

 

[deallus]

Yeah he sure was, he favored Denmark over Sweden and Norway!

Couldn't have put it better myself. He must have been bonkers mad. :wacko:

Yeah. Saying that Tzar Putin is a King would be rubbish. :wacko:
