Photograph by David Coleman. The Australian Coat of Arms, prominently displayed on the facade of the Old Parliament House in Canberra, serves as a symbol of the nation's unity and identity. The Coat of Arms was granted by King George V in 1912 and features the six emblems of Australia's states, representing the federation of these states under a single national government. The design includes a shield held by two native Australian animals—the kangaroo and the emu—each chosen for their inability to walk backward, symbolizing progress. The shield on the Coat of Arms is divided into six sections, each containing a representation of one of the states: New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania. Above the shield is a seven-pointed Commonwealth Star, one point for each of the six states and one for the territories, representing Australia's unity and federal structure. Surrounding the shield is a wreath of gold and blue, the national colors of Australia. The Old Parliament House, an important historical building in Australia's political landscape, houses the Museum of Australian Democracy. The presence of the Coat of Arms on its facade underscores the building's historical significance and its role in the governance of Australia. The emblem reflects the nation's heritage and the unification of its states and territories under a federal system, making it a key symbol of Australian sovereignty and identity.
