+===Origin/meaning===
 The kingdom of Westfalen was created in 1807 and existed until 1813 as a vassal state of the French Empire under Napoleon.
 The arms show the horse of Westfalen in the first quarter, which has been used as a symbol of the area for many centuries by the Archbishops of Köln (Duchy of Westfalen). It was also used by the [[Province of Westfalen]], the successor of the Kingdom and it is now part of the arms of the State of [[Nordrhein-Westfalen]].
-The second quarter is again divided with in a: the lions of the County of [[Diez]], and in b: and c: the arms of the County of Nidda (with wrong colours, blue instead of yellow). I don't know the origin of the lion in 2d, or the small escutcheon.
+The second quarter is again divided with in a: the lions of the County of [[Diez]]; in b: and c: the arms of the Counties of [[Zeigenhain]] and [[Nidda]] and in d: the County of [[Katzenelnbogen]], over all an escutcheon of [[Hessen]].
-I don't know the origin of the third quarter.
+The third quarter was newly designed and should represent the area around [[Magdeburg]].
 The fourth quarter shows in a the arms of the [[Duchy of Braunschweig]], in b the arms of the County of Diepholz, in c the arms of the Duchy of Lüneburg and in 4d the arms of the County of Lauterburg. The whole quarter is taken from the old arms of Braunschweig.
