Common Kingfisher Burg: Blauet ordinaire | Alcedo atthis | _Photograph_By_Shantanu_Kuveskar,_Mangaon,_Maharashtra,_India.jpg)
|
Noted for being viciously territorial, even against it's young, the Common Kingfisher was often used in the HLE as an allegory for the coastal urbanites of the Kingdom of Dericania. The concept of overseas trade was lost on the landed ignoramuses of the "inner kingdom". They could only comprehend the practice based on what they obversed in every day life, and the expelling of offspring by the Common Kingfisher seemed to match the pattern witnessed in the coastal towns and cities.
When the coastal states were united under the banner of Burgundie the slanderous connotation had faded and the proud nature and vicious defense of it's territory favored the national narrative of the formation of the new nation it became the national bird. The blue on the badge of the flags of Burgundie is a formulation owned by the government and is called Bleue della Blauet. |

Neutinamu | Zelkova serrata | 
|
In Metzetta, Zelkova serrata has been considered a symbol of protection for villages since ancient times, and can still be found planted at central points in cities, towns and villages around the country. The trees often stand next to small pavilions, serving both as shaded informal gathering points, and spaces for traditional rituals and ceremonies involving prayer and offerings to the tree. The oldest of these trees are estimated to be in excess of 1,000 years in age, and are protected as natural monuments. In 2013, a project was announced by the Emperor's Gardens to clone the zelkova trees that are identified as natural monuments, so their lineage will not be lost in case of disaster or death due to age. |
