Coat of arms of Tuvalu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The coat of arms of Tuvalu shows a shield with a golden border, which is decorated in a pattern with eight mussels and eight banana leaves. The shield itself shows a hut beneath a blue sky on green grounds. Beneath the ground are stylized depictions in blue and gold of ocean waves.

Beneath the shield stands a banner with the Tuvaluan inscription Tuvalu mo te Atua, which translates "Tuvalu for the Almighty" and additionally serves as the title of the Tuvaluan national anthem.
