Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Oh Kafuristan, with it's pristine beaches and it's many serene forests, how I wonder thee now, how can this place be as beutiful on the face of this ugly world! Oh Kafuristan, with it's great culture, and vultures, how I wonder, how it's deserts give us the precious black gold.
Current:
| It has been a long time oh my weapon! I long for you in my struggle! Speak and say I am awake, Oh war it has been a long time. It has been a long time for the soldiers, Advancing with thunderous roar, Swearing never to return, Except with epoch-making victory. Rise and close ranks, With lives ready for sacrifice. O! the horror that the enemy shall suffer, From you in the fire of the battlefield. O! glory our glory, You who was built by us, By toil and pain, Never to go to waste. Who shall protect Free Kafuristan? We shall protect her with our weapons. Land of the Revolution, who will sacrifice for her sake? We will, with our souls. The people advance like the light, The people stand like mountains and seas, Volcanoes of anger, volcanoes erupting, Earthquakes digging the enemy into their graves. |
Proposed:
| Kafuristan, our new free land It shines just like a martyr's stand, And as we reach our voted dreams We'll come with aid for all who scream. We'll hold our fertile fields with praise Respect the determined men who stay, As foreign powers waste and rot To be defeated we shall not! Through troubled times and aches of sort We'll gather strength from our great courts, The time for justice comes for all Fear not if it's your surname called. All of ours have chance to say "It's not your decision anyway," As our free people will choose their fate For democracy we'll celebrate! |

| Random fact: Moderation will not accept Cultural Protocol updates which introduce, on a significant scale, cultures which are likely to be insufficiently accessible to players. In particular, for all significant cultures in Particracy, it should be easy for players to access and use online resources to assist with language translation and the generation of character names. Moderation reserves the right to amend Cultural Protocols which are deemed to have introduced significant cultures that are not sufficiently accessible and which are not being actively role-played with. |
