Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Formerly at her call, our ancestors, knew how to engage in mighty battles, with strength, courage, honour and ardour, but paying the price with blood. Children of Sekouo, arise! The resounding cry of freedom is heard at the first light of every dawn. Children of Sekouo, arise! When all around blow winds of anger and hate, Sekouo stands strong, calm and ever ready, trusting in the shared future of all. Great Sekouo, your snowcapped mountains, green forests and blue waters, Show the world your brightness; Your soil offers the richest fruits. Sekouo, from henceforth your children are united, With one fraternal spirit sharing the hope of the future.

Proposed:
I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts And all around me a voice was sounding This land was made for you and me The sun comes shining as I was strolling The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling The fog was lifting a voice come chanting This land was made for you and me As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there And that sign said - no tress passin' But on the other side .... it didn't say nothin! Now that side was made for you and me! In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple Near the relief office - I see my people And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin' If this land's still made for you and me. |

Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
