Michigan Flag History

Michigan adopted its state flag in 1911. Depicted on the shield is a lake with a yellow sun rising over blue waters. On the Michigan state flag, a man is standing on a peninsula with one hand raised in a greeting of friendship and the other hand holding a rifle. An Elk and a Moose support the shield between them and a Bald Eagle grasping an Olive Branch and arrows in its talon is shown above the shield. Three mottos are shown on the coat of arms: "E Pluribus Unum (From many, One), "Tuebor (I will defend), and "Si Quaeris Peninsulam Amoenam Circumspice (If you seek a pleasant Peninsula, look about you)." The Bald Eagle on the Michigan state flag represents the US and the Elk and Moose represent the state of Michigan.
