I don't want to be too picky, but at least the eagle pictured on Germany is kind of wrong. While it is not specified which species of eagle the "Bundesadler" is, it is most definitely never depicted as a bald eagle (that would be the USA). More usuale would be a Golden eagle or a White-tailed eagle.

If you are interested in the history and background of the Bundesadler, here is an informative video. It's in German and I'm afraid there is no English version
