Mide or Meath, a medieval Irish province, is sometimes represented by a coat of arms comprising a monarch "in majesty": that is, seated on a throne on a field of azure (blue). The arms of Mide appear alongside those of the four modern provinces on a 1651 map of Galway. The arms reflect the fact that Tara, the seat of the High King of Ireland, was in Mide. This symbolism is derived from iconography rather than classical heraldry; mediaeval royal seals portrayed a majesty on the obverse and the arms of the sovereign on the reverse. The sceptre, here shown to have six oval nodules, represented power, and the outstretched right hand justice; both of these were royal prerogatives. The old province of Meath is nearly coextensive with the present-day Diocese of Meath. The arms of Meath were appar

| - La bandera i escut del regne irlandès de Mide consisteix d'un monarca en majestat (assegut en un tron). Les armes simbolitzen el fet que Tara, la seu del Gran rei d'Irlanda, era a Mide. Aquest simbolisme deriva de la iconografia més que no pas de l'heràldica clàssica; els segells reials medievals portaven una majestat a l'anvers i les armes de sobirania al revers. El ceptre aquí mostra tenir cinc nòduls ovalats, representa el poder, i la mà dreta estesa la justícia, totes dues eren prerrogatives reials. L'antiga província de Meath, que és gairebé de la mateixa extensió que l'actual Diòcesi de Meath, es representa heràldicament per un personatge reial assegut en un tron. Aquest és un cas en què la iconografia fa deures d'heràldica clàssica. Els segells reials medievals sempre retrataven a l'anvers una majestat i al revers les armes del sobirà. El ceptre en la mà dreta estesa tipifica les prerrogatives reials de poder i justícia. És, per descomptat, pel que fa a Meath, on es troba Tara, indret simbòlic de la reialesa d'Irlanda, sol ser mostrat heràldicament per la representació d'un personatge de la reialesa, o majestat, assegut en un tron. Les armes de Meath aparentment van ser utilitzades en un moment com a escut d'Irlanda, és a dir, una majestat en un fons de sabre (negre), els escuts provincials que es mostren en un camp d'atzur (blau). El , fa servir l'escut, però el de Meath n'ha adoptat un nou disseny. (ca)

The old province of Meath is nearly coextensive with the present-day Diocese of Meath. The arms of Meath were apparently used at one time as the arms of Ireland, but with the majesty on a field of sable (black) instead of azure. Meath GAA uses a logo incorporating the arms. The arms of Meath County Council are an unrelated design. (en)
