The island of Saint Bathelemy was also it by Irma. It belongs to France, and we see very typical French arms of it.
It is meant to convey the island's history: a French rule, a Maltese Knights' rule, and a Swedish rule.
As far as I can tell, the blazon should be the following:
Arms: Azure, a fess Gules charged with a maltese cross Argent between, in chief tree fleur-de-lys fesswise and in base three crowns Or.
Coronet: a civic coronet Or masoned Sable
Supporters: Two pelicans Proper
Motto: OUANALAO
