"...the province of Iraq came under the control of the United Kingdom." Iraq was formed from the three Ottoman provinces of Mosul, Baghdad and Basrah. There was no Ottoman province called "Iraq".Fsotrain09 02:39, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Initially I suspected that the coat of arms used for the Iraqi monarchy was inaccurate, largely because the flags are not of Iraq but of Jordan, and are not the same as the one that is often thought of as being the flag of the Kingdom of Iraq. But according to [1] the flag would be valid for Iraq, and I assume then that the coat of arms may remain although the inscription is specific for Jordan. I can only assume that since both were Hashemite dynasties, they would have similar coats of arms.

The Jordanian Coat of Arms is also that of the entire Hashemite Dynasty- IIRC, the line placed on the Jordanian throne is the senior line of the family. The only coat of arms used for the Kingdom of Iraq itself, however, is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Iraq_royal_arms.PNG . I'm not sure why this image was removed from the page. --24.147.128.141 16:39, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)
