Jordan Coat of Arms:

On August 25, 1934, the Executive Council (The Council of Ministers at the time) issued Directive No. 558 declaring the Coat of Arms, (which was designed in 1921 upon the request of His Highness Prince Abdullah I) as the official emblem of the country and outlining its specific design layout.

On February 21, 1982, the Council of Ministers issued the official Notification No. 6, which gave written specifications and explanations of the official emblem of the country.

The crown symbolizes the system of monarchy.

The sash upon which the crown is placed symbolizes the Hashemite throne.

Its scarlet color represents sacrifice, while the white inner background symbolizes purity.

The two flags are the flags of the Great Arab Revolt.

The eagle in the center of the coat of arms symbolizes power, might and loftiness.

The eagle is perched on the globe, and his wings touch the two flags of the Great Arab Revolt.

a - The blue color of the globe symbolizes the spread of Islam across the world.

b - The bronze shield in front of the globe represents the defense of truth and right in the world.

The spears, swords, bows and arrows are traditional Arab weapons.

Below the shield to the left are three branches of wheat, and to the right is a palm branch.

Stretching down from between the wheat and palm branches is the highest Jordanian medal, the decorative order of al-Nahda.

A yellow cordon hanging from the ribbon of the decorative order of al-Nahda consisting of three parts on which the following phrases are embroidered:

On the right: “Abdullah II bin Al Hussein bin Aoun”
(Aoun, the great grandfather of Al Sharif Al Hussein bin Ali)

In the middle:
“King of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan”

On the left:
“Who seeks support and guidance from God.”

The State Emblem of Pakistan was adopted in 1954. The emblem's green colour and the star and crescent at the top are symbols of Islam, the religion with which most Pakistani citizens identify. In the center is a quartered shield, with each quarter containing a major crop of Pakistan at the time of its adoption: cotton, jute, tea, and wheat. The floral wreath around the shield is Poet's Jasmine (the national flower) and represents the Mughal cultural heritage of Pakistan. The scroll at the bottom contains the national motto in Urdu, coined by Muhammad Ali Jinnah, which reads from right to left: (Urdu: ایمان ، اتحاد ، نظم) Iman, Ittehad, Nazm translated as "Faith, Unity, Discipline

The emblem of India is an adaptation of the Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka.
Emperor Ashoka the Great erected the capital atop an Ashoka Pillar to mark the spot where Gautama Buddha first taught the Dharma and where the Buddhist Sangha was founded. In the original there are four Asiatic lions, standing back to back, mounted on a circular abacus with a frieze carrying sculptures in high relief of an elephant, a galloping horse, a bull and a lion separated by intervening Dharmachakra or Ashoka Chakra wheels over a bell-shaped lotus. It was carved out of a single block of polished sandstone.
The four lions (one hidden from view) - symbolising power, courage, pride and confidence - rest on a circular abacus. The abacus is girded by four smaller animals - guardians of the four directions: the lion of the north, the elephant of the east, the horse of the south and the bull of the west.The abacus rests on a lotus in full bloom, exemplifying the fountainhead of life and creative inspiration. The motto 'Satyameva Jayate' inscribed below the emblem in Devanagari script means 'truth alone triumphs'.
The version used as the emblem does not include the bell-shaped lotus flower beneath. The frieze beneath the lions is shown with the Dharma Chakra in the center, a bull on the right and a galloping horse on the left, and outlines of Dharma Chakras on the extreme right and left.[1]
Forming an integral part of the emblem is the motto inscribed below the abacus in Devanagari script: Satyameva Jayate सत्यमेव जयते (English: Truth Alone Triumphs).[1] This is a quote from Mundaka Upanishad[2], the concluding part of the sacred Hindu Vedas.
It was adopted as the National Emblem of India on 26 January 1950, the day that India became a republic.
