| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The emblem of Italy was adopted by the newly formed Italian Republic on 5 May 1948. Although often referred to as a coat of arms, it is technically an emblem as it was not designed to conform to traditional heraldic rules. The flag of Italy was officially adopted on January 21, 1919. It is a tricolor flag which features three equally sized vertical stripes of green, white and red color. This book studies the national symbols of Italy including its coat of arms, House of Savoy, pale, and a list of Italian flags.
