Regna firmat pietas
text:
Regna firmat pietas is a Latin phrase translated in English as "Piety strengthens the realms". The phrase was used as the royal motto for Denmark–Norway during the reign of Christian IV and sought to promote Lutheranism as a strength for the nation. King Christian used the phrase for the first time in 1584 when he was seven, and likely adopted it from his teacher, Hans Mikkelsen. The motto can be found in buildings and churches erected by King Christian in Denmark, Norway and Schleswig-Holstein.
