Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: You people enslaved in lies and in shame See freedom dawn over the hills Together we’re rising – free from old bonds Over countryside, in the city, everywhere From the north's dim blue forests and mountains To rocky south and sunny coasts We shout from the hillsides, the fjords our home Now the era of freedom has begun Pontesi free is a redemption for all As our people break free from past injustice Shackles forged for the sake of profit are falling, from hands of a people reborn We see the bleak star of Luthori falling And the oppressor flee our land Arise Pontesi, be reborn! For the dawn of freedom has come! Let the sun rise above all the tribes of our realm As hallowed as the land we own We no longer want for the hunger for gold See our people prepare for their deaths Let sacred hymns rise up to the heavens above For Pontesi, our future and our past May the sun-cured free-born lineage, all of it's peoples From the path of freedom never go astray Pontesi free is a redemption for all As our people break free from past injustice Shackles forged for the sake of profit are falling, from hands of a people reborn We see the bleak star of Luthori falling And the oppressor flee our land Arise Pontesi, be reborn! For the dawn of freedom has come!
Current:
Oh Fatherland, Fatherland, show us a sign, To lead us from hatred and substance malign; I wake from my slumber and gaze at the day, Yet look to you always to show me the way; Through sword, bow and arrows, the perils I've slayed, Would make e'er a weaker man sorely afraid; But with such a guidance I'll never stray, My Fatherland is my way. Oh Motherland, Motherland, tell us again, Of those you repulsed as they challenged your reign; The grass recalls battles, our stalwart prowess, The hawks soaring over note how we progress; Building our futures with esprit de coeur, We're once, twice, thrice, evermore striken with awe; But with my own glorious part to play, My Motherland is my way. Oh Pontesi, Pontesi, let us once more, Praise your grand name as our fathers before; As one valiant nation to challenge the sins, That fell naive countries whose morals wore thin; I will fight for home, my morale will not break, With forces of wickedness slain in my wake, It's with such a realm my loyalty stays My Pontesi is my way. |
Proposed:
Pontesians always loyally declaim About the way we rule the waves. Gran Tadraki's song is just the same When singing of our soldier-braves. All the world has heard it-- Wonders why we sing, And Gaduridos learned the reason why-- We're not forgetting it, We're not letting it Fade away and gradually die, Fade away and gradually die. So when we say that Pontesi is master Remember who has made her so It's the soldiers of the Queen, my lads Who've fought, my lads, who've conquered, my lads In the fight for the Company's glory lads When we've had to show them what we mean: And when we say we've always won And when they ask us how it's done We'll proudly point to every one Of Pontesi's soldiers of the Queen. |

Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names.
