Everything about Emblem Of Maldives totally explained
The
Maldivian National Emblem or
Coat of Arms consists of a
coconut palm, a
crescent, and two criss-crossing
National Flags with the traditional Title of the State.

The depicted coconut palm resembles the livelihood of the Nation. The inhabitants believe it to be the most beneficial
tree to them as they utilize every part of the tree on various applications ranging from
medicine to boat-building. The Crescent (a universal
Islamic symbol) and its accompanying
star embodies the Islamic
faith of the State and its authority respectively.

Ad-Dawlat Al-Mahaldheebiyya are written in the
Arabic naskh style of script. They were used by
Sultan AI-Ghazee Mohamed Thakurufaanu Al-Azam one of the most illustrious heroes of the nation. The title Ad-Dawlat Al-Mahaldheebiyya (
Arabic: الدولة المحلديبية) means the "State of the Mahal Dibiyat", which is the name Ibn Batuta and other Mediaeval Arab travellers used to refer to the Maldives.
Modern Usage
The Coat of Arms is a symbolic representation of the Maldivian
Government and is used frequently in official documents (on the header right underneath the
Bismillah) and other Governmental Representations.
