Romans used to say "caput aut navis" (head or ship) in Latin. In Spanish, "heads or tails" is translated in South America, "Cara o sello" (face or stamp) or "Cara o escudo" (face or emblem). In #Spain "Cara o Cruz" (face or cross) and in #Mexico, "Águila o sol" (eagle or sun).
The countries in #Spanish do not have #articles, except for some like "El Salvador", where the article is part of the name. There are however some that might have it: #Perú or el Perú? #Argentina or la Argentina?
Flor de #Pascua or Flor de #Navidad?
The poinsettia is a #Mexican plant, that became associated with #Christmas after Franciscan missionaries included it in nativity scenes. Joel Poinsett's fascination led to its introduction to the US in the 1820s, and the flower was named after him.
