Bill: Modernisation of the National Anthem
Details
Submitted by[?]: Confederation of Democratic Councils
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 3578
Description[?]:
| Mordusia has been a Federal Republic for many years and yet we continue to have an outdated national anthem with obscure references to a long dead autocratic king. As we are updating the constitution is it not time that the Mordusian people had a new anthem that celebrated the people and their democracy? If so, what would it be? |

| Message | To start, we suggest a song that names all our regions and even key cities and identies Morisian values. To us, those shared values are freedom, fairness and democracy. |

| Message | 'Take back what was once yours'. From whom? |
| Date | 18:36:34, November 13, 2013 CET | From | Confederation of Democratic Councils | To | Debating the Modernisation of the National Anthem |
| Message | From the lords and kings who claimed it and the Lithori invaders who stole it. |
| Date | 01:51:23, November 14, 2013 CET | From | Force Publique | To | Debating the Modernisation of the National Anthem |
| Message | After reading the old national anthem, it refers to Mordusia itself as "King of kings". Not a specific King or any real person. |
| Date | 05:28:25, November 14, 2013 CET | From | Party for the Strengthening of the Holy | To | Debating the Modernisation of the National Anthem |
| Message | Actually I'm almost certain that most of the anthem refers to Mordusia's past as a religious, theocratic though democratic state, which it was in my first stint a few RL months ago. The Mordus thing is related to the religion of the people of Mordusia as well as its past, just for clarification purposes. |
