US State
The flag of Indiana was adopted on May 31, 1917, as the third official flag of the U.S. state of Indiana. Designed by Paul Hadley, it has remained unchanged since its adoption, with specifications standardized in 1955. Prior to 1955, it was referred to as the state's official banner.
The seal of Indiana is used by the governor of Indiana to certify official documents of the U.S. state of Indiana. The seal has gone through several revisions since the region was a part of the Northwest Territory. It is likely that the original seal, which is similar to the current one, was created by William Henry Harrison during his administration of the Indiana Territory. The current design of the seal was standardized by the Indiana General Assembly in 1963.
Indiana is one of the 50 states of the United States of America. Each US state has its own official seal, flag, motto, and a range of state symbols including a state bird, flower, and tree.
