Administrative division
The Comores are a federal state consisting of three islands Grande Comore (Njazidja), Anjouan (Nzwani) and Mohéli (Mwali). There are several towns and citie son the islands, but as far as I know none of these uses heraldic arms.
National Symbol of the Comoros
The symbol was adopted on June 25, 1977.
The symbol of the Comoros has the crescent and four stars taken from the national flag in the center. A sun with rays extended is right above the crescent. Around the focal point, the former name of the nation (Federal Islamic Republic of Comoros) is written in both French and Arabic. The border is composed of two olive branches, with the national motto at the bottom in French.
