i assume we are talking about NS nations here...Neethis' anthem is Place Your Hands, by Reef. Just imagine stadiums full of people singing that before ice hockey matches! (im not Canadian by the way, im british, but Neethis has a cold climate.)

Well the civillian population uses What Do I Have To Do by Stabbing Westward and the military population uses Rise by Yokko Kanno and Origa

Cygnusifalco, our dear land
May you ever be
A symbol of intelligence
And profound beauty
We will ever defend you
We will ever love you
We will ever sing your praises
In one voice our chorus raises
Cygnusifalco, our dear land
Fair and just and free
Our beloved home and mother
You will ever be.

The national anthem of the Combined Goblin Collective is named "We Iz Gobbos". Sung to military drill tune ("I don't know what you've been told" etc.)


We iz gobbos an' we iz tuff,
Aint no gribblies gonna steel uz'z stuff,
We will av ya'z 'coz weze hard,
Dun say uz shipz luk loik a scrapyard!

We'z gonna 'it ya in da face,
Even if we'z gotta fight ya in yer base!
We'z from yer worst noightmarez,
We'z gonna give ya roight big scarez!

Shiny-stuff, one, eight. (Insert number of individual Goblin's choice)
Shiny-stuff, ninety-three. (This verse often causes a fight over what exactly are the right numbers)

Uz ships iz bilt roight gu-u-ud,
We'z gonna steel all yaz foo-ood!
An if ya'z got anytink shiny,
Weel screem an yell "Blimey"!

Weez big, weel kick yez azz,
Aintn't nu'un gonna kill uz'z!
We'z got lots an many big gunz,
Weez gunna kill abzutely evry'wunz!

Shiny-stuff, many, lots,
Shiny-stuff, give uz lotz!


I shudder every time I think of it.

Thoughts of a Dying Athiest by Muse

I've decided that Fatastistan's national anthem will be Dimmu Borgir -- In Death's Embrace. It doesn't have anything to do with our country, but I believe it is our citizens' god-given right to have a kick-ass national anthem. Heh, imagine everyone trying to sing it a baseball games. My trachea hurts already.

I would have had thoughts of a dying athiest (as it was on the original missprinted version of absolution :D) so really this post should have read...

I would have had:

Endlessly - MUSE

but Butterflies and Hurricannes lyrics were infinitely superior let me enlighten the poor dreprived ones who've not heard the song...

Change,
everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
fights, battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

change,
everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

don't,
let yourself down
don't let yourself go
your last chance has arrived

best,
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

Janning is a very militant nation.
We pride ourselves on our great miltary power.
Our anthem has no words. It is played by a drum line.
It is very symbolic of streangth.

Akaton has two national anthems, alternating by years.

Annihilation (by A Perfect Circle)

Progenies of the Great Apocalypse (by Dimmu Borgir)

well my RL country's national anthem is the star spangled banner yes I'm from the U.S.A, please don't beat me.
Shiaze's national anthem? I've never really thought about it. I mean not all countries have one. So I've never really given it much thought I'll have to bring it up at the state dinner.

HoL has no official national anthem. Since it is a complete anarchy peopled by rejects and deviants living waist deep in trash, most inhabitants are too busy trying to survive to actually sing about it.

The secret rulers of HoL actually like "Hard Rain" by Bob Dylan.
