The eagle is clutching arrows, representing a fasces, the root of the word fascism, representing the power of the state. Traditionally depicted with an axe at the centre, a fasces was a tool used by the roman armu to discipline soldiers. An axe for decapetation, rods for beating.
these things are everywhere un modern nation states, but I’m told it’s not important, it doesnt mean what i think it means.
it is also the root of the word f*ggot, a bundle of sticks.
