Coat of Arms of Saddam Hussein (Spanish Order of the Civil Merit) T-Shirt: Design Description
A Hybrid Heraldic Symbol
This t-shirt showcases a unique heraldic emblem, the "Coat of Arms of Saddam Hussein (Spanish Order of the Civil Merit)." The design is a fusion of Iraqi national identity and Spanish chivalric tradition, resulting in a striking and historically significant visual representation.
The Eagle of Saladin and the Iraqi Shield
At the core of the design is the iconic Eagle of Saladin, a stylized golden eagle that served as a key symbol of Iraq during Saddam Hussein's rule (circa 1965-1991). The eagle is depicted holding a shield on its chest. The shield is painted with the colors of the Iraqi flag, reflecting the national identity of the era.
Spanish Order's Heraldic Adaptation
The Iraqi national emblem is presented in a format consistent with Spanish chivalric decoration traditions. This is because Saddam Hussein was awarded the Collar (or equivalent high grade) of the Order of Civil Merit. Therefore, the national arms were adapted into a "coat of arms" badge, suitable as a knight-collar emblem.
A Symbol of Diplomatic Honor
The "Coat of Arms of Saddam Hussein (Spanish Order of the Civil Merit)" is more than just a decorative design; it represents a moment in history. It illustrates the intersection of international diplomacy, national symbols, and the traditions of honor and recognition.
