==National Emblem== | |||
Since the creation of the Turkish State in 1923 the country has not used arms, only the above emblem. | |||
The predecessor, the Ottoman Empire also did not use proper heraldic arms, but used the composition below, which was officially adopted on April 17, 1882. | |||
[[File:ottoman.jpg|center|550 px|Arms of the Ottoman Empire]] | |||
The composition shows the tughra, the symbol of the Sultans. It is surrounded by two flags: the red flag of the Ottoman dynasty with a star and crescent, and the green flag of the Islamic caliph, largely obscured by a cornucopia. | |||
Behind the flags are a number of spears and other weapons, scales and a book for justice as well as an anchor and torch. | |||
Hanging beneath the symbol are the medals of five of the Ottoman decorations, the Şefkat Nişanı, Osmani Nişanı, İmtiyaz Nişanı, Mecidiye Nişanı, and İftihar Nişanı. | |||
The use in collector's items has shown different variations of the arms with crescent and star, but the Ottoman arms I have never encountered: | |||
