Michigan’s current state flag was adopted in 1911, featuring the state coat of arms that celebrates Michigan's geography and nature and its history as a frontier state.

The design features three Latin mottos. From top-to-bottom they are: 

  1. "E Pluribus Unum," means "Out of many, one," a United States motto.
  2. "Tuebor," means "I will defend."
  3. "Si Quaeris Peninsulam Amoenam Circumspice" means "If you seek a pleasant peninsula, look about you,” which is the official state motto.

The elk and moose featured in the coat of arms are symbols of Michigan, and the bald eagle represents the United States.
