Republic of Croatia is divided in 21 counties called zupanija (sg., read zhupaniya).
They are administrative units, and slowly acquiering coats of arms and flags.
But historical parts of Croatia do have coats of arms (those in crown of the coat of
Croatia). Now they are not officially used by any unit. Some are, however, often seen,
especially the one of Istria (goat) and Dalmatia (three heads), used by political parties
as shields on white flag. There are many towns' coats and flags that are used.
