The dove is the angel of peace (D3 Gold). I am afraid it is beyond reproach in any country in today's world.
However, this lovely little one is not as this role from the beginning.
In ancient time, people kept pigeons as love angel but not peace messengers. Until early era, the
pigeons don was regarded as a symbol of peace.
In the sixteenth century the mammoth religious made a reform movement, pigeons had been endowed with
a new mission so they made it become the embodiment of the holy spirit.
Until the seventeenth century, thirty years war was ended. The pigeon was doned "office" again to be peace messengers. At that time, the imperial German's each free city released a set of COINS, the design is a dove that bit a olive branch in mouth.
The period of Germany hurricane dash movement the outstanding representative Schiller took the dove from peace symbol of religious significance to politics. In his masterpieces "Mr Nancy's girl", he let the French resistance heroine declared: "miracle will be there --the dove will take off, she will be use the courage as eagle to beat the vulture who ravaged our motherland !"At this time the dove was no longer the symbol of hope that had no resistance, it became a fighter.
I'm afraid it is the Spanish painter Picasso's a great invention to make the pigeon as a symbol of world peace.
In November 1950, in order to commemorate the socialist state in Warsaw Picasso drew a dove. At that time, Chile famous poet Neruda called it "the doves". From now on, the dove as the world peace messengers was recognized for all countries.
