The national emblem of Yemen depicts a golden eagle of Saladin with a scroll between its claws.[1] On the scroll is written the name of the country in Arabic: الجمهورية اليمنية or Al-Jumhuriyyah Al-Yamaniyah ("The Yemeni Republic"). The chest of the eagle contains a shield that depicts a coffee plant and the Marib Dam, with seven blue wavy stripes below.[2] The flagstaffs on the right and left of the eagle hold the flag of Yemen.[3]
