Artists made feminine metaphors to represent the nation in the 19th century. Marianne, a well-known Christian name, promoted the significance of a people's state. Her features were inspired by Freedom and the Sovereign state: the red hat, the tricolour, and the horizontal stripe. Marianne monuments were placed at various areas to inform folks of the nation's flag of peace and to encourage individuals to associate with that too. Marianne's picture appeared on currency and stamps. Germania had become a symbol for the Germans. Germania wears an oak crown in pictorial renderings since the German oak represents bravery.
