The Coat of Arms of Westarctica was established in its current form in 2015 as a National Symbol of Westarctica, but arms for the nation have existed in various forms since 2005. It was originally used in it's most basic form (without supporters) on the reverse side of Westarctica's coins, and a version with lion supporters was in the letterhead for decrees and correspondence issued by the Grand Duke.
The first coat of arms for Westarctica was created by Jon-Lawrence Langer in January 2005 in his capacity as Chief Herald. The colors and design were based upon the first Flag of Westarctica: a green cross upon a field of teal. Instead of green and teal, however, Langer chose the colors yellow and sky blue to help set it apart from the flag.
These arms were quickly embraced by Grand Duke Travis, who integrated the new arms into a more robust version with gilded lions as supporters.
