Now, if in tradition of the HREGN this was the "Holy European Empire of German Nation", complete with Habsburg Emperor and (German) Prince-Electors then I could nearly agree with the European idea, haha.
Hm, maybe Europa should have a different colour than the bull? Looks a bit like a big golden blob the way it is... then again, it's a good thing you used a proper heraldic colour, and not natural colours as far too many modern CoAs do.
I saw someone else using the bull and Europa for united Europe so I wanted to use it as well. Maybe the bull should be silver. That would work out as well. And yes, it's sad that not much people who design coats of arms aren't familiar with the rule of tincture.
Speaking of those, gold and silver next to each other? Of course, like in the colours of the Vatican and the Kingdom of Jerusalem, that deliberate break of the rules could signify the special importance of the Empire. Alternatively, red might work since it can also be counted as copper and hence neatly sidesteps the rules. But red would maybe stand out too much.
The rule of tincture only effects on the main charge and the shield as far as I know. And placing red on blue is braking the rule even more. And there's no such colour as copper in heraldry.
btw.... the name of the flag sounds very familiar
