Pax Americana Mugs
Description: Pax Americana (Latin for 'American Peace', modeled after Pax Romana and Pax Britannica), often identified with the "Long Peace", is a term applied to the concept of relative peace in the Western Hemisphere and later in the world after the end of World War II in 1945, when the United States of America became the world's foremost economic, cultural, and military power exercising primary responsibilities for world order.
Description: An idea came to me earlier this year: the American Bald Eagle, made into a Griffin. The Griffin is a symbol of protection, destructive in power but protects mountain passages and castles, which America provides during our period of the Pax Americana. The body shows continuation of English heritage via the White English Dragon, but it is it's own thing now as dragon is mixed with the bald eagle. The snake tail, partnered with the yellow quarter, is a callback to one of America's oldest flags, the Gadsden flag bearing the Timberwood Rattler. Art credit goes to "I.M. Anathema". Thank you for the work!
