notes:
Puebla, in the Mexican state of Puebla, was also known as Puebla de los Angeles, and Puebla de Zaragoza. Still used as the arms of the city, the coat of arms is a green shield with a five-tower fortress in gold; two angels hold the fortress. The "K" and "V" in the angel's hands stand for Karolus V (Charles V). Below the fortress is a blue river. The text translates to "God command his angels take care of you in all your paths."
