The Kansas flag consists of a dark blue field with the state seal in the center. A sunflower on a bar of twisted gold lies above the seal, and below the seal is the word "Kansas". The seal contains a landscape that includes a rising sun, representing the east and a river and steamboat, representing commerce. In the foreground, a settler's cabin and a man plowing a field represent agriculture. A wagon train heads west and buffalo are seen fleeing from two Indians. Around the top of the seal is a cluster of 34 stars representing Kansas as the 34th state to be admitted to the Union. The state motto appears above the stars. Above the stars is the state motto in Latin "Ad Astra per Aspera" - "To the Stars through Difficulties".
