Coat of arms of Macau
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The current devised emblem came into use in 20 December 1999, when the sovereignty of Macau was transferred from Portugal to the People's Republic of China. The emblem is now referred officially as the "Regional Emblem".
The regional emblem features the same design elements as the regional flag of Macau in a circular setting. The outer white ring is shown with the caption of the official name of the territory in traditional Chinese characters (as opposed to the simplified form): "中華人民共和國澳門特別行政區"(Macau Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China) and the Portuguese short form, "Macau".
