Current:
| Tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ_zW_PgWeA Luthorian: Great hymns travel through the planet, old flags burn, your crypt has opened, rise quickly, oppressed Reason! Lead us into battle, we shall destroy all and on the ruins of nations will the World Federation flourish! (Alexandric hexameters in the original Syldavian.) Leading the raging uneducated brights in yellow the dirt-teeth of the monster rotting our existence: nation! you mind-nitty delusion of lunacies, history woke you with fire: with fire you shall fall back into the dust! Lead us into battle, oppressed Reason, and on the ruins of nations will the World Federation flourish! Syldavian: Nagyszerű himnuszok kísértenek, égnek a régi zászlók, felnyílt a koporsód, megalázott Ésszerűség! Vezess a csatába minket, pusztítsunk el mindent, s a nemzetek romjain fog majd virágozni a Világszövetség! Koszfoga felsárgállik a bősz tanulatlanok élén emberi létünk megnyomorító szörnyetegének: nemzet!, te agytetves tévképzete elmebajoknak, tűzzel hányt az idő, majd tűzzel is éget a porba! Vezess a csatába minket, megalázott Ésszerűség, s a nemzetek romjain fog majd virágozni a Világszövetség! |
Proposed:
| Pure of heart, pure of mind, Men of Endralon thou art Sing thine name into the sky Upon the eagle doth our hopes soar high Since long ago And to this day Take sickle and hoe Work today Live tomorrow Build the day after Endralon is with you Marching this day |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
