The Kingdom Mugs
Description: Dieu et mon droit, meaning "God and my right" is the motto of the Monarch of the United Kingdom outside Scotland. It appears on a scroll beneath the shield of the version of the coat of arms of the United Kingdom. The motto is said to have first been used by Richard I (1157–1199) as a battle cry and presumed to be a reference to his French ancestry and the concept of the divine right of the Monarch to govern. It was adopted as the royal motto of England by King Henry V (1386–1422) with the phrase "and my right" referring to his claim by descent to the French crown.
Description: Baldwin IV, known as the Leper King, ruled the Kingdom of Jerusalem in the 12th century during the turbulent era of the Crusades. Diagnosed with leprosy at a young age, he defied his fate with extraordinary resolve. Marked by disease but unbroken in spirit, he led the Crusader kingdom with courage, wisdom, and deep faith. Alongside the Templars, Crusaders, and other knightly orders, he defended Jerusalem against Saladin’s forces—most notably at the legendary Battle of Montgisard. Despite his physical suffering, Baldwin became a symbol of endurance and honor—a king who dedicated his life to the protection of the Holy Land.
