- I've been reading (and saving!) with interest the various discussions on
- the arms of various Eastern European countries and regions. Here's a
- question --- does anyone know how old these are? Some of the countries
- involved were indpendent for a while during the early part of the millenium
- --- did they have arms then, or were all of these invented in the 19th
- century, or some of each? For that matter, how old are the arms of Russia
- or its cities? Anyone know any of this stuff?
