			==The Chief in Italian Heraldry==

			In [[Italian heraldry]] the chief is referred to as the '''capo'''. The addition of certain ''capi'' were often used to declare political allegiance. The two most famous cases of this are the ''capo d'Angio'' and the ''capo dell'Impero'', which were used by the [[Guelf]]s and [[Ghibelline]]s respectively from the [[12th century\|twelfth]] to [[15th century\|fifteenth]] centuries.

			The [[Guelf]] ''capo d'Angio'' consisted of a [[label]] [[gules]] over three [[fleur de lis\|fleurs de lis]] [[or]] on a chief [[azure]]. On occasion semy de lis was used instead of just three. This was based on the arms of the House of Anjou.

			The [[Ghibelline]] ''capo dell'Impero'' consisted of an [[eagle]] (either single or double headed, usually crowned) [[sable]] on a chief [[or]]. It symbolised allegiance to the [[Holy Roman Empire]].
