message: COAT OF ARMS
The history of the state coat of arms begins with the Crnojevics dynasty in 15th century. Their family arms - golden crowned two-headed eagle on the red background - laid the foundation of the Montenegrin state heraldry: the two-headed eagle became the standard symbol of the state. After gaining the power, the Petrovic-Njegos dynasty took the golden two-headed eagle as the state symbol. Vladika Danilo charged on its breast the Great Arms of the Petrovic-Njegos family (shield, crown, mantling), while his successor vladika Sava made major changes to the coat of arms: removed the family Great Arms from the eagle's breast, and added the scepter and saru ("the imperial egg") in its claws. He also added another symbol retained until present day - the golden lion passant - below the golden eagle. With Petar I, further rearrangement of the coat of arms took place: from the eagle he removed the royal insignia and charged on the eagle's breast the Middle Arms of the Petrovic-Njegoss (the shield with the crown) while leaving the lion passant.
Prince Danilo also reorganized the Coat of Arms: he charged on the golden eagle's breast the shield where on the blue background the golden lion passant was on green ground. In one claw the eagle held the orb, and in the other a sword and the scepter.
In the time of prince then king Nikola, the sword was removed and later, in conformity with the Constitution of 1905, the color of the eagle was changed from golden to silver as well as the of the background of the shield with the lion - to red instead of blue.
The Constitution of 1993 maintained "the tradition" of king Nikola: the adopted Coat of Arms was a crowned silver eagle with the orb in one and the scepter in the other claw, and charged on its breast was a red shield with the lion passant.

thread_title:   official presentation of montenegro - I think this text should replace this long HISTORY article 

message: - Certain parts are literal translations of Montenegrin texts (the National Symbols Act) and do not work well in this setting. For example, the description of the coat of arms is misleading. It says "on a red base" while the original meaning is "on a red background". These are not synonyms in a heraldic context. Another example is the "Use" segment. This is copied from the Act but this fact is not mentioned even though it is important in understanding the context. Also, I don't think that this much detail in the "Use" segment is justified.
- The "General" segment should be renamed to "Description" and the "Description of the coat of arms" should be removed and the blazon put underneath the image instead. Check the article about the Coat of arms of Russia to see what I mean.
- The image shown here is NOT the coat of arms of Montenegro. The description of the coat of arms can be found in the National Symbols Act (in Montenegrin/Serbian) and states that the eagle is on a "red background" which is not shown in the image. This annihilates the point that the coat of arms is heraldically wrong on the grounds of containing regalia. It is just as valid as that of Russia and Poland. Why is the full image not used in practice is beyond my understanding.
I am new to Wikipedia, but I will help fixing these and any other issues to the best of my abilities.

thread_title:  This article needs improvement 

message: The bronze color should be replaced with gold/yellow and the blue and red should also be changed, the colors of the flag of Montenegro from 1992 to 1994, since this was the official/most used version of the coat of arms of the Republic of Montenegro
