It's actually a Pahonia coat of arms, traditional national emblem of Belarus, and it's officially established by the Third Statute of Lithuania in 1588. All the laws and statutes of the Great Duchy of Lithuania are written using the Old Belarusian language and this language is claimed by a statute to be the language of a titular nation. In a present day Belarus we do not consider Lithuania to be a successor of the Great Duchy, neither culturally, nor ethnically. |
