Martinique, a région and overseas département of France in the Caribbean, has historically used a coat of arms with four white fer-de-lance vipers since 4 August 1766. However, the coat of arms has become controversial due to its association with the territory's history of slavery, and its use has been discouraged by local Martinicans. The Regional Assembly has adopted a distinctive logo to represent the Territorial Collectivity of Martinique.
