'''Heraldry of the World''' is a private website which is devoted '''only''' to civic heraldry, i.e. coats of arms of cities, states, municipalities, countries etc. It also includes educational, corporate, military and institutional heraldry. A large section is also dealing with an attempt to make a complete catalogue of heraldic (paper based) collector's items, again with the main focus on civic heraldry. | |||
