The State seal was changed in 1974, and the Tatmadaw emblem was changed a few years later (not immediately). The then new emblem is with a red map of the country surrounded by cogwheel and paddy ears headed by a star (which are also the ones added to the State seal). Instead of using the name of the country, the Tatmadaw started to include its motto on its emblem. It also excluded the lions which was included in the former one. [8]
