The words "E Pluribus Unum" which is Latin for "From many, one" is a motto that was included on the Great Seal of the United States. It was included in 1782 by the committee who was assigned to design the Great Seal. This phrase expresses the idea that out of many individual states, a single nation is formed. It symbolizes the unity of the country as a single entity formed out of the union of different states. This motto expresses the idea of the unity and strength that comes from diversity, reflecting the idea of the nation as a melting pot of different cultures and peoples. This motto is also featured on other United States' coins and documents, including the dollar bill.
