Missouri
|
Centered on red, white and blue fields is the Missouri state seal.
It is encircled by a blue band with twenty-four stars representing the
number of states in 1821. The stars in the inner circle have the same meaning.
Two huge grizzly bears support the circular shield in the center which
has three parts:
-
The motto "United We Stand, Divided we Fall"
-
The right section representing the United States
-
The left section containing a moon representing a new state and a grizzly
bear standing for courage.
