The Coat of Arms includes two phrases, "Blessed are the peacemakers" and "Shame to him who evil thinks." Choose one of these phrases and explain why a ruler might want it included in a coat of arms

The phrase "Blessed are the peacemakers" is among the beatitudes in the Bible, in the book of Matthew chapter 5 verse 9 which means that he that makes peace instead of war shall be blessed.
