The correct answer is Mexico

So why is this answer correct? : Although it’s tough to spot, the coat of arms of Mexico — featured in the center of the Mexican flag — showcases a golden eagle snacking on a snake perched on a flowering prickly pear cactus. The emblem comes from the Aztec legend of the discovery of Tenochtitlán, now Mexico City. In the legend, the gods told the Aztec people to build a city where they witnessed an eagle devouring a serpent perched upon a cactus.
