Mathematics describes the nature of numbers and their operations, along with the processes of concluding that an assumption has or does not have truth. There exists a necessity to infer the nature of objects in order to infer the nature of a proof that explains why those objects exist. Survival and order in a society relies on the ability of humans to use the proof processes central to mathematical study. In mathematics, the correct completion and interpretation of a proof begins with making the right assumption via known circumstances. The process which human beings go through to make rational decisions is reflected throughout the human experience in connection with historical events. There exists the presence of a need to use the logical processes central to mathematical proof in order to answer a question, but the lack of an assumption or the right assumption can lead to serious consequences. The methods created and executed by humans, some methods leading to drastic changes in laws and social norms, reflects on what a wrong assumption can lead to. A lack of the essential thought processes can derail a solution from being helpful or a mission from being accomplished. Those thought processes require humans to discipline their natural selfishness for the sake of cooperation with others. The interpretation of the phrase e pluribus Unum yields to the human experience, which involves coming together to solve the problems of the world. E pluribus Unum represents a symbol of unity that humans must attain to achieve true success.
