The country was invaded by Haiti on 27 February 1844; this event could be the explanation of the Haitian flag as a basis! In 1844 the Dominicans added a white cross upon this blue over red flag in order to have their own symbol of liberty. However the two upper rectangles were blue & the two lower were red. The flag was shifted later. Then the Spaniards happened to rule the country again from 1861 up to 1865. Blue represents freedom & red the blood shed for independence (as usual!). The cross stands for sacrifice. The present pattern was adopted on 6 NOVEMBER 1844 & restored on 1865 & finaly on 1924.

The text is very interestin but I prefer my project : a Dominican coat of arms without all that too much complicated mess (motto + crucifix + bible). I also propoze to turn the "Amerikish looking shape" into a "French looking shape" for the shield.

My idea of droppin all that complicated stuf is not so unseemly. Indeed : both Mithra's cap & ouroboros were fired from the 1844 original coat of arms by law of 12 JUNE 1896. So..........

Otherwize let's notice WikiMERDIA put on the bible a text from the Gospel of John, chapter 8, verses 31 & 32 but.......... maybe WikiMERDIA is just shit once more.

Indeed, the great heraldist Hubert De Vries displays another one. It's the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 10, verses 24 & 25. That text says (I quote) :

24 The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord.
25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household ?

I just dont know but you can check it out just right here (see Republica Dominicana) > hubert-herald.nl/INHOUD.htm

Of course, I DO TRUST Hubert De Vries 100000 times than WikiMERDIA.... but I DO PREFER 100000 times the Gospel of John !!!!

I also propoze a "French looking shape" for the shield because both upper angles salient just look like the 2 ridiculous ears of a cat.......... anyway it loox too Amerikish heraldry style of shit !!!!
