<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lord Geoff, post: 1877901, member: 42001&quot;]The Bermuda Coat of Arms features a lion, who represents England, holding a shield etched with a ship that has been run aground. The ship in the etching is the &quot;Sea Venture,&quot; and was the flagship of the Virginia Company on its way to Jamestown, Virginia. The ship ran aground, purposefully, during a storm at sea, and all passengers on board were saved, thanks to the swift actions of Admiral Sir George Somers. Coincidentally, the reef that the ship ran aground on was the Bermuda reef, and thus the island nation was formed in 1609.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
