text:
The coat of arms of the Canary Islands is the central device of the flag of the Canary Islands, Spain. The designs were made official by the Statute of Autonomy of the Canarian Autonomous Community on 10 August 1982. The shield shows seven gray islands, representing the Canary Islands of volcanic origin in the Atlantic Ocean.
Atop the shield is the royal crown of Spain.
The shield is supported by dogs from which the islands may derive their name, possibly from the Latin term Insula Canaria, mean
