albania emblem key ring

The Emblem of the Republic of Albania (Albanian: Stema e Republikës së Shqipërisë) is an adaptation of the flag of Albania. It is based on the flag and seal of Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg. The crest above the head of the two-headed eagle is the helmet of Skanderbeg, surmounted with billy goat's horns. The eagle is considered to violate the conventional rule of tincture, which forbids placing a color (i.e. a dark tincture) upon another color.
