The Russian national emblem is the double-headed eagle. Long ago this proud bird was the national attribute of the powerful Byzantine Empire. Its appearance in our expanses was due to John III. Many experts argue that the reason for this was the conclusion of a marriage alliance with Princess Sophia. She was of Byzantine blood. In 2005 the image was enshrined in the main constitutional law and became the main emblem of the state. The emblem emphasizes the power and wealth of a great country. The noble tone has another meaning - it testifies to the justice and mercy of the Orthodox Church. Anyway, we should know our history and all emblems of our country, because we are not only native people, but modern generation, which should give the most important knowledge to future generation.
