    What does the unicorn, one of the supporters of the Royal Coat of Arms, represent?

    Question #101969. Asked by mmrrll. (Dec 28 08 4:15 PM)

    It represents Scotland.

    "The dexter supporter is a likewise crowned lion, symbolizing England; the sinister, a unicorn, symbolising Scotland. According to legend a free unicorn was considered a very dangerous beast; therefore the heraldic unicorn is chained, as were both supporting unicorns in the Royal coat of arms of Scotland."
