Here's a Recommendation how about Two of the Wolves at the sides facing the edge of the Shield (Right looks at Right, Left looks at Left). Two Cannons each doing the same as the Wolves, then..a Musket or Tree (If you can) at the Middle.
What would be the House Words for Luciano Graziani?

This is also my idea of the flag with a Graziani coat of arms, courtesy of RealOtto's suggestion.

I get everyone's excited about the new actions Magoose added, but those actions aren't going anywhere. Our good will with foreign nations from Luciano sharing the steam engine won't last forever. The sooner we capitalize on it the better. Can we honestly say a defense treaty with Britain wouldn't be a good thing?
The Great Flag (and Coat of Arms) Debate of Italy
The Great Flag (and Coat of Arms) Debate of Italy
The Great Flag Debate After the Monarchist Faction proposed the (read: Their) Coat of Arms as a submission to Luciano's House Graziani, Senator Octavian sees that as a challenge and has his own Flag Makers create their own map to propose their own version. Not to be out-done, The Moderates under Prime Minister Ravioli create their own flag (while the Prime Minister was reported to be facepalming and asking his party to not turn the entire thing into a large debate).
The Next Parliament Setting, instead of it becoming one that the Army tries to request funds, turns into an infighting session between the members of Parliament over the added question of the Official Standard Flag. His Majesty King Luciano was reported to be annoyed over the whole debate after receiving mail from every faction with a request of his preference in his and Her Majesty's Coat of Arms.
Seeing this as a way to gain the Monarch's attention, the Army decided to create their own Coat of Arms and Flag to submit to Parliament. The action wasn't forgotten by the Italian Navy that decided to create their own versions for the King to choose from to put the Army back to their place below the sea urchins.
The results of the fighting spread outwards from the Parliament and Senate to the public (through The Times New Roman). Many Civilians, Students, and Surfs envisioned their own designs to be adopted by the Italian Monarch and Nation as the official flag and Coat of Arms of Italy. The sudden rise of demand in regards to dye and cloth were noted by those complaining that they couldn't fix their clothes until later in the week.
What was meant to be an innocent question turned into a wild feud to get their flags and coat of arms accepted by King Luciano and his wife Queen Isabella.
Receptions of these turn of events received mixed reactions by the other European Powers and their Court.
The Austrian Court is noted to be look at the news with disdain, claiming in their own words "Shows the indecisiveness of the so-called 'King Luciano'", in addition to shaking heads at the fact Her Majesty Queen Isabella of Italy was doing nothing to 'encourage' the King from stopping this Commoner Matters with an Answer Clear as Austria's Prominence to Power. There were even rumours of the Monarch of Austria writing letters to scold his daughter from allowing herself and the King of unbecoming of 'fellow' Habsburgs.
King Charles of Spain's reaction was noted to be laughter, with an added joke that he'll even create and send his own Flag and Coat of Arms to his Good Friend in Rome..and even made that one court meeting to become an Idea Workshop to design them and send them to Italy.
The King of England was noted to be amused with the turn of events, with a cheeky comment that He should've chosen the St. George's Flag out of simplicity.
Suleiman's reaction only received a smile, with no further comment.
The King of Hungary was noted to use this opportunity to ridicule the Italians and their Monarch at every opportunity, even laughing that many thought he was becoming insane.
The French looked at the news with scoffing remarks on the Italians, making sure to make the Italian Flag and Coat of Arms situation to be on every Frenchman's head instead of the recent losses against the Holy Roman Empire.
The Holy Roman Empire's various princes begin asking the question: "What should be the New Flag and Coat of Arms of the Holy Roman Empire?", and ended up creating their own version of the Great Flag Debate. With many citing that the Holy Roman Empire's Coat of Arms Contains too many minor Arms and suggests a new change to make the Dye and Print more sufficient to be produced instead of wasting the material trying to do every Coat of Arms on it.
During the long weeks of The Great Flag Debate, rumours speculate that Former Minister Machiavelli looked amused and even chuckled at the turn of events, even commenting to his Good Friend Senator Octavian that if Leonardo Da Vinci was still among them, he would've been creating his own submissions with Great Enthusiasm..and agrees to allow the Senator to make that direct quote public in The Times New Roman.

[X] Plan: Of Armies and Industry
Carrie of Books and Brien O'Goose, The Italian Play
Carrie of Books and Brien O'Goose, The Italian Play
Since the creation and wide-spread movement towards literacy for all Italian people, the Authors and Scriptwriters who often complained of less customers compared to other industries, begin enjoying a new era where people of all ages are able to read books and buy more books for their money and ability to continue creating stories.
One of these script writers/authors is by the name of Pietro Bembo, who'd just left service of the Pope after the Italian Unification under King Luciano of Italy. With the possibilities of travel safer, he went ahead and signed up to join Leonardo Da Vinci's Maintenance of the road as a scribe to record documents and orders. This gives him enough justification to be able to visit every City in Italy, writing down prompts to think about.
It was when arriving back home that he wondered of the possibilities of writing beyond his created treatise based on poetry writing structures, and persuasion of utilising Tuscan as the main form of linguistic Italian Language. Which made him inspired to begin writing prompts and reading other works that are now available with the unification making it possible.
While reading different books on the genre of romance, a sudden inspiration hits him. He stopped reading as he began remembering a certain concept that brought his attention in addition to how the Ancient Greeks wrote their passages: Plays. With this new idea, he begins pouring through Greek Plays and stories of how they were written from their dialogues, to actions, and the masks the performers have to wear for certain parts of the plays.
After finishing Children of Heracles by Euripides, Pietro begins the creation of a new extension to his persuasion utilising Poetry and other literary lines..towards a restored concept of playwriting, while writing it in the context of the Tuscan language. Alongside this piece of writing, he begins creating his own story in the style of a play with changes placed into them.
The first focus of this add-on piece of writing (The Play) would be the story. Not wanting to cause anymore strife in the Italian nation by using names or locations from Italy, he decided to base it on the British Isles.
While reading a piece of news from The Times New Roman on the Irish-English relations, a sudden burst of inspiration makes him decide to create a romance-esque story with the real theme being a creation as thought experiments of Irish-English romantic relations between individuals whom families disliked the other because of their long history. What also inspired the Tragedy are the Greek Plays he remembered to have them.
Thus, when it all came together, the "Fisher Family" and the "O'Goose" Family being a long-standing feud since the England's arrival in the Port of Dublin, with the star-crossed lovers being separate family members of the two families (Carrie "of Books" Fisher and Brien O'Goose). With creativity, it spurred him to utilise inspiration from places and buildings he's seen in Italy to manifest with some clear changes to develop a Italian-esque version of Dublin. With Canal Routes being a way of transportation in the fictional Dublin, the common people reading Newspapers of The New Dublin Times, and other ideas.
He later expands the worldbuilding with little segments of the story showcasing their bonding and..forbidden acts (in the eyes of the families) being performed with witty innuendos and making suggestive scenes up to the imagination. Then to add in more tension, he creates a City plot using The Head Guard of Dublin as a point of interest with his ultimatum to demand for the families to put an end to their feud.
The latter "chapters" of the story would see an on-going struggle for Carrie and Brian to keep their love unknown, with hits being performed by the families against each other, Brian discusses the possibilities of elopement with her to flee from Dublin to the Canal City of Venice, the Busy streets of Rome, or even to Mountainous regions of Greece. The plan was about to be done..until a friend of his was fatally wounded by a member of the Fisher Family (beforehand he pleaded to make peace with him) that results in him putting an end to him out of revenge..although he deeply regrets doing so as he puts himself and was forced to be exiled to the Irish Fields (a clause of the Head of the Guards to stop more atrocities from happening by both families.)
Carrie, who was in grief with the banishment, runs to the Church Father, who sympathises with the duo and even handles their secret marriage, where he convinces her of a plan to allow her to escape to the Irish fields with Brian. She gives a letter to a good friend of the both of them, Lucas the Earthworker, to quickly send the letter to Brian that she'll be coming to live with him after finishing some business. Unknown to the both of them, Brian missed her too much to the point of quickly leaving to see her again.
The next few scenes become increasingly intense, with the showcase of both thoughts back-to-back with the stage being "cut in half" that all accumulates to Brian finding her in the Church, heartbroken, as he sees Carrie's unconcious Body. Saddened, he stabs himself with the knife he brought..ending himself before Carrie wakes up to find her beloved gone.
Losing the will to live, she uses the same knife. Together, the two lovers are dead in the Church.
The families, in their grief and anger, blame the other..before the Head Guard arrives and scolds each one of them. He teaches them a lesson as he points out the fact that none of the tragedies would happen if the two families buried the hatchet and ended up embracing each other as fellow people instead of fellow pitchforks.
After more editing in the directions a performer has to wear (in addition to removing masks altogether after seeing its impracticality and instead focused on clothing and other cosmetic/accessories as 'Costumes'), he publishes the work in addition of vignettes of short poetries alongside the Playwriting Restoration Pamphlet.
The Story would be titled as: Carrie of Books and Brien O'Goose.
