Cronista Re d'Armi Russo-Italiano Imperiale (Imperial Russo-Italian Chronicler King of Arms) Established 2008 in descendancy from the Kingdom of Italy in the Holy Roman Empire, founded in 876 and the Pontifical Kingdom of Rus', founded 1199 (ancient Rus' founded 862). Affiliated with the Instituto Heráldico de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires SEE SAMPLE REGISTRATIONS BELOW! The Imperial Chronicler King of Arms, also known as the Imperial Russo-Italian Chronicler King of Arms, is the official authority responsible for heraldry for the former Imperial Kingdom of Italy, which was established by Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne in 855 until the rise of the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy in 1801. Additionally, it is the heraldic authority for the former Pontifical Kingdom of Ruthenia, which ruled from 1199 to 1349. Since then, the Imperial Chronicler King of Arms remains a reputable source for Italian and Russian (Ruthenian) coats of arms. It particularly specializes in Italian coats of arms associated with the Roman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire (different from the Savoy Kingdom of Italy and the current Italian Republic), as well as Ruthenian coats of arms related to the Pontifical Imperial State (distinct from the later Romanov Dynasty or the current Russian Federation). Presently, under the sovereign ecclesiastical authority of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church (Stato Pontificio Imperiale di Roma- Rutena), which is separate from and not affiliated with modern Vatican City-State or any other civil state, the Imperial Chronicler King of Arms can register or grant coats of arms to individuals connected to territories once part of the Roman Empire, Holy Roman Empire, or Kingdom of Ruthenia. This includes countries such as Italy, Germany, France, Spain, along with all other European countries; Britain; regions like Holy Land and former Crusader States; North America; South America; and various nations linked to territories within the Pontifical Kingdom of Ruthenia (Russia). Furthermore, it has authority in certifying genealogy and titles of nobility.   Hello, I'm Diego! I'm here to be your trusty guide through the coat of arms process.
