Coat of arms of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The coat of arms of the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic is a symbol created by the Polisario Front, the pro-independence movement for Western Sahara. The Polisario Front proclaimed the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic on February 27, 1976.
The symbol depicts two crossed rifles with the SADR flag hanging from either gun. Centered above them, is a red crescent and star, Islamic imagery. Surrounding the guns and crescent are two olive branches, one on either side. At the bottom is written in Arabic the Polisario motto "حرية ديمقراطية وحدة" (English: "Liberty, democracy, unity") in black on a red banner.
