[edit] A question about the England football badge, crest or coat of arms.

[edit] England - Normandy - Denmark?

Its known that Normandy is named after a the norse, danish king as always been using tree lions, is it possible that then the norse possede normandy they also brought along their coats of arms, as they did in Tallinn Schleswig-Holstein Schleswig and Lûneburg.
