Anyone else wondering if the statues in front of Beacon were symbolic reference to the King of Vale an the Defacto leader of Vacuo? I know someone asked why she had horns on the side of her head in this episode. Maybe it was so the writers could say that biased artist would draw her with her hood covering her horns so as way for the racist of the day to try and sweep the fact that she was a Fanuas under the rug.

Actually it's possible she hid her horns with a hood similar to Blake to have an easier time leading Vacuo. There was a female Pharaoh in Egypt, Hatshepsut, who took over rule after her husband died and the heir was too young to rule. After a few years she started wearing male attire and had all statues of herself depicting her with a beard in her efforts to cement her rule.

Either way, I think the statue in front of Beacon is meant to represent the Vale and Vacuo victory that ended the great war.
