  • Heraldry in the Republic of Macedonia (1991-2019)
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 1 September 2021 doi:10.20944/preprints202109.0027.v1 Article Heraldry in the Republic of Macedonia (1991-2019) Jovan Jonovski1, * 1 Macedonian Heraldic Society; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +38970252989 Abstract: Every country has some specific heraldry. In this paper, we will consider heraldry in the Republic of Macedonia, understood by the multitude of coats of arms, and armorial knowledge and art. The paper covers the period from independence until the name change (1991-2019). It co- vers the state coat of arms of the Republic of Macedonia especially the 2009 change. Special atten- tion is given to the development of the municipal heraldry, including the legal system covering the subject. Also personal heraldry developed in 21 century is considered. The paper covers the de- velopment of heraldry and the heraldic thought in the given period, including the role of the Macedonian Heraldic Society and its journal Macedonian Herald in development of theoretic and practical heraldry, as well as its Register of arms and the Macedonian Civic Heraldic System. Keywords: Heraldry in Macedonia; Macedonian civic heraldry; Republic of Macedonia. 1. Introduction The Republic of Macedonia became independent from the Socialist Federative Re- public of Yugoslavia with the Referendum of 8 September 1991. The Democratic Federal Macedonia was formed during the first session of the Anti-Fascist Assembly for the Na- tional Liberation of Macedonia (ASNOM) on 2 August 1944 (it later became the People’s Republic of Macedonia, a federal unit of the Federal People’s Republic of Yugoslavia).

The study reacts to the exhibition on Emperor Sigmund in 2006 that in its catalogue brings some incor- rect results on insignia of the Hungarian Order of Dragon that arose in 1408 as a formal justification of the Barons Leage. The order was revived in 1411 in connection with its use as a diplomatic means. The author in detail analyses the genesis of the order insignia that represented a dragon winded into a circle. In 1416 the ruler added to it a flaming cross in a vertical distance. The author analyses a motive of a cru- ciform wound on the dragon´s back, deals with an issue of existence of a kolany order and considers an alleged insignia of the ruler´s grave to be only a jewel.

Our results confirm that there is a severe and non-converging structural bias against women in the bestowing of civil orders and med- als, despite the fact that in many fields of awarding (such as the judicial system, the national health system, etc.) the percentage of women is nearly equal to that of men. 122 THOMAS BAUMERT Y ESTHER VALBUENA GARCÍA We discuss the convenience of introducing a female quota in the number of proposals to awards as a measure to overcome the current gender bias.

Include all available information about the subject of the request or inquiry, such as size, metallic content, ribbon and enamel colors, and the obverse and reverse inscriptions. Also include, if possible, the best illustration of the subject; but do not bend illustrations, especially photographs. Forward the description and illustration to me at P.O.

I look forward to your inquiries, but please be patient. Identification requests are given a designation for future reference that consists of the Journal year and Journal number in which it appears and its sequence in the issue. Thus "IDENTIFICATION REQUEST 99/1/1" appeared in the 1999, Number 1 issue of the Journal, and it was the first of the requests listed.
