Chile is the longest country in the world and it’s the country that i’m going to be researching today. Chile is located in South America, stretching along the west side of the Content. The history of Chile goes back to the 18th of september when Pedro de Valdivia founded the country.The shield is known as “Coat of arms” it has a condor and a huemul wearing crowns. They stand between a crest with three feathers on top and red and blue stripes in the middle with a star right in between. I felt that the most interesting parts of the shield was the condor, the huemul, and the words on the crest .
The condor is a bird that comes from the vulture family. It can weigh 17-30 pounds and its length usually somewhere between 3.3 and 4.3 feet.So why is this bird of the shield, well it’s Chile’s national bird.

It’s the words on the Coat of arms but what’s the meaning? "Por la Razón o la Fuerza" means “ by reason or by force”.

It also talks about how Chile struggled to gain independence from Spain and how they had no choice but to fight for their freedom.
I feel that i’ve learned a lot about taking care of what is yours because of how Chile is still trying to save the animals that they took for granted. I also think I understand why these things are on the coat of arms. The reason for both the condor and the Huemul is that they both represent the country for be the national animal and bird.The reason for the words of the coat of arms is that it shows a lot of history in just four words, it tells about how Chile tried to be reasonable but had to fight back.My personal favorite feature on this list was the motto of Chile because of the story it
