Until the beginning of the 13th century Estonia was politically independent. Then began a long chain of occupation and control by foreign powers. In the 1200s the German crusaders converted Estonia into a Christianity by force and took control over South Estonia. In 1219 Denmark conquered Northern Estonia. About a century later, in 1346 Denmark sold its territory to Germany. By the 1500s German nobles owned much of Estonia's land. After the Livonian War (1558-1583) the northern part of Estonia went under Swedish control, the southern part belonged to Poland and the islands to Denmark.

The central motif of the state coat of arms, three blue lions on a golden shield, is among the oldest symbols of Estonia. It stems from the coats of arms of the Knighthood of Harrien Vironia and Tallinn. These were granted by Valdemar II, King of Denmark, after the founding of the Duchy of Estonia during the Northern Crusades. The current design for the state coat of arms acquired official status in 1925. The cornflower is the national flower of Estonia.
