The coat of arms of the Republic of Sedunn (Sedunnic: Devtoved Sedunnō karelhinnib) has a lesser and a greater version. The lesser version features the Star of Limmvasd on a traditional Im knight's shield and a crown, and is used by the Sedunnic state and its authorities and agencies. The greater version additionally features the five Brother Spears and oak branches, and may only be used by the Sedunnic government. The shield and the spears represent actual equipment of the personal guard of the first Sedunnic monarchs. Even though the main elements of the Sedunnic coat of arms are as old as the republic itself, the current version was officially adopted in 1853.

Origin
The Sedunnic coat of arms represents the consolidation of Sedunn and the mandate of the government. The word for "coat of arms" in Sedunnic is "karelhinnib", which means "defender of [the] realm", relating to the Im knights who used the shield that is featured in the coat of arms and were armed with spears. The below table provides a break-down of the elements.
Derived use
The Transsunerian coat of arms features a small field in Sedunnic blue, and along with the Karnetvorian green they officially represent the assistance the two nations provided in ending the Second Transsunerian Civil War.
