The Great Seal of the State of Ohio is the official insignia of the U.S. state of Ohio. All governmental offices, agencies, and courts in Ohio use variations of the state seal. Its primary feature is a circular coat of arms that depicts a sunrise in Chillicothe, Ohio's first capital, along with symbols of the state's origins. The seal sometimes appears with the state motto, "With God, all things are possible". Shortly after its establishment in 1803, the state adopted a seal based on a sketch by Secretary of State William Creighton, Jr. Except for a brief period during the 1860s, the layout and details were left largely unregulated until a standardized coat of arms, based on the original design, was introduced in 1967. The coat of arms was modified most recently in 1996. ==Design== The design of the Great Seal of the State of Ohio is defined in Ohio Revised Code section 5.10: The coat of arms is defined in section 5.04: The hills shown in the seal are managed by the Department of Natural Resources as Great Seal State Park.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Parks and Recreation )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seal of Ohio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
