A coat of arms is an heraldic visual design on an escutcheon (i.e. shield), surcoat, or tabard. The coat of arms on an escutcheon forms the central element of the full heraldic achievement which in its whole consists of shield, supporters, crest, and motto. A coat of arms is traditionally unique to an individual person, family (except in the United Kingdom), state, organisation or corporation.

Лев (Panthera leo) — крупный представитель семейства кошачьих рода Panthera, обитающий в странах Африки к югу от Сахары и Индии. У него мускулистое тело с широкой грудью, короткая округлая голова, круглые уши и тёмный пучок волос на кончике хвоста. У него ярко выражен половой диморфизм: взрослые самцы крупнее самок и имеют густую гриву. Это социальный вид, образующий группы, называемые прайдами. Львиный прайд состоит из нескольких взрослых самцов, родственных самок и детёнышей. Группы львиц обычно охотятся вместе, охотясь в основном на средних и крупных копытных. Лев — высший и ключевой хищник.

The Sun, also known as Sol, is a star at the center of the solar system. It is a white star that gives off different types of energy such as infrared energy (heat), ultraviolet light, radio waves and light. It also gives off a stream of particles, which reaches Earth as "solar wind". The source of all this energy is nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the reaction in the star which turns hydrogen into helium and makes huge amounts of energy. It is a nearly perfect ball of hot plasma.

A sword is an edged, bladed weapon intended for manual cutting or thrusting. Its blade, longer than a knife or dagger, is attached to a hilt and can be straight or curved. A thrusting sword tends to have a straighter blade with a pointed tip. A slashing sword is more likely to be curved and to have a sharpened cutting edge on one or both sides of the blade. Many swords are designed for both thrusting and slashing. The precise definition of a sword varies by historical epoch and geographic region.
