Correct! I just viewed it and here are two from  Russia and the Mexican is most interesting, it signifies the place for  Mexico City. 

The coat of arms depicts a Mexican golden eagle perched upon a cactus devouring a snake. To the people of Tenochtitlan this would have strong religious connotations, but to the Europeans, it would come to symbolize the triumph of good over evil.

In England not every family has one-it´s usually only the aristocracy but you can design one if you want to.
