Lineage Mark of Germany, schema 1x2

Or, a fess chequey Gules and Argent.

Coat of arms of the lineage Mark of Germany. Symmetrical geometry of a fess chequey of 3 traits: a) The height of the fess is 1/3 of the width of the coat of arms. b) The fess is chequey with 3 traits. c) Therefore, the height of each trait is calculated as 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. d) In a square, the height is equal to the width. e) Consequently, the width of each square in the chequey is also 1/9 of the width of the coat of arms. f) The first trait must contain 9 squares, as the width of the fess allows for an exact division into 9 equal squares, 9 being an odd number. g) If the first square is Gules, the last square of the same row will also be Gules, ensuring symmetry in the design.
