Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Comrades: the voices of the dead battalions Of those that fell that the Reich might be great, :Join in our song, for they still march in spirit with us And urge us on to gain the Peoples State!: We're of their blood, and spirit of their spirit, Sprung from that soil for whose dear sake they bled; :'Gainst vested powers, Zionism, and massed ranks of Reaction We lead the fight for Freedom and for Bread.: The streets are still; the final struggle's ended; Flushed with the fight we proudly hail the dawn ! :See, over all the streets the hammer and sickle waving- Triumphant standard of a race reborn !: We are the army of the Flash and circle!, Raise high the red Flags! :We want to build Aryan labour's Road to Liberty!: We are National Bolsheviks, Want no Reactionaries! :We hate Jews and Marxists Long live the Aryan Revolution!: Onward, brothers, to the barricades! The Leader calls, follow him now! :Reaction has betrayed him But the Natbol state comes nevertheless!:
Current:
| From sandy shores to mountainsides, from the hills to the plains, the Republic shines its light on thee! The Republic lives in every mind, every heart that beats free bears witness, to the great justice within Badara! Long live Badara, long lives it’s people! Long live the Republic, and democracy! |
Proposed:
| A homeland that extended its wings over the horizon, And wore the glory of civilization as a garment-- Blessed be the land of the two isles, A homeland of glorious determination and tolerance. This homeland is made of flame and splendour And pride unequaled by the high heavens. It is a mountain that rises above the tops of the world And a plain that embodies our pride. The sea is inherent in us and Al\\\'Badara is ours, And because of the glory of our background History itself radiates with light, And it is we alone who possess the anger of the sword And the perseverance of the Earth. Oh company of Al\\\'Badara, you pride of lions, Oh pinnacle of pride and of inherited glory, Advance, bringing terror, to a certain victory And resurrect the time of olden gold in our land! We are a generation who give all and toil to the utmost. Oh expanse of glory, we have returned anew To a nation that we build with unyielding determination. And each martyr follows in the footsteps of a former martyr. Our mighty nation is filled with pride and vigour And the comrades build the fortresses of glory. Oh Al\\\'Badara, may you remain forever a refuge for all the Badarans And be as suns that turn night into day! |

| Message | oh yeah, I\'ll fix that about the anthem, I am not sure, I got it from a bill that corrected a typo where Iraq was mentioned instead of Al-Badara, so I guess it\'s the Iraqi anthem, modification suggestions are good to consider. |

| Message | Well, from a neutral perspective, Article 2 is stupid. Agundi City was the capital before the Reich, and Dar al Salam was wiped out by the Reich. |

| Message | True, but Dar al Salam has forever stood up against tyranny, it has always been a center of democracy. And the Reich did severely cripple the city, but it still retains its historical value. |

| Message | OOC: good thing I didn\'t delete this as it seems we\'re going to have to stick with the seemingly prefered Nazi symbols till a 2/3 consensus is reached The White Jasmine Party is disappointed by the MPWP for their decision to further their own agenda instead of focusing on the removal of the Nazi symbols first, nonetheless the White Jasmine shall try to reach a compromise and will edit the National Anthem to make it a bit more acceptable to MPWP. |

| Message | Ammendments made: The anthem: \"Patience of the Prophets\" to \"The Perseverance of the Earth\" \"refuge to all Arabs\" to \"Refuge to all Badarans\" OOC: of course this is done despite the fact Badara had been an Arab Islamic state, but sadly game mechanics do not represent that, seeing how the aryans and the slavs took power. |

| Message | MPWP, we implore you to reconsider your decision. These reforms are to erase the remnants of the Bolshevik Revolution, and if we delay this any longer, it may be seen that Al\'Badara as a whole was not opposed to the Bolshevik Revolution. |
