Dragons Have Been Around For Thousands of Years. In China, dragons symbolize wealth, power, and leadership. Chinese emperors were believed to be descendants of dragons. In mythology, a female dragon is called a drakaina, which is the female form of the ancient Greek word for dragon, drakon. A little dragon is called a "dragonet."
Dragons symbolise lots of different things, depending on where they are. In Britain, defeating a dragon meant you were a powerful warrior, and so they were often placed on flags. In Western tradition they often symbolise evil, and the devil is sometimes depicted either as being a dragon, or having dragon's wings.
