The German coat of arms is the Federal Eagle (Bundesadler). Its origin dates back to the Holy Roman Empire of Karl der Große (Charlemagne), a Frankish king and Roman emperor (from 800 AD to his death in 814 AD).The eagle was the symbol of the ancient Roman Empire, and with its rebirth through Charlemagne's coronation as Emperor of the Romans by Pope Leo III on Chritmas Day 800 AD, it was adopted as the symbol of the "new" Roman empire, in order to show continuity.The modern German coat of arms is a black eagle on gold background with red beak and talons, thereby incorporating the colours of the German flag into its design.
