Heraldry
Coats of arms and other heraldic symbols helped everyone know who belonged to which family, since most people could not read or write in Tudor times. Henry VII, understanding this, combined the red and white roses that symbolized the Lancasters and the Yorks respectively, and created the Tudor Rose as a symbol of unity.
Design and draw your own coat of arms, upload it to an image hosting site, and send me the link. You can use traditional colors and symbols (there is a good basic description at this site: http://www.americancollegeofheraldry.org/achsymbols.html or modernize it -- maybe you'd like your coat of arms to feature your iPhone! This site has a good generator, or you may create your own if you prefer: https://worldspinner.com/heraldry/device_editor/ Write 2-3 sentences about why you chose the symbols you did.
