Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: When Luthori first at Heaven's command Arose from out the emerald main; Arose, arose, from out the emerald main; This was the charter, The charter of the land, And guardian angels sung this strain: Refrain: Rule Luthori, Luthori rule the waves, Luthorians never never never shall be slaves. The nations, not so blest as thee, Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall; Must, in their turns, to tyrants fall: While thou shalt flourish, shalt flourish great and free, The dread and envy of them all. (Refrain) Still more majestic shalt thou rise, More dreadful, from each foreign stroke; More dreadful, dreadful from each foreign stroke; As the loud blast, the blast that tears the skies, Serves but to root thy native oak. (Refrain) To thee belongs the rural reign; Thy cities shall with commerce shine; Thy cities shall with commerce shine: All thine shall be, shall be the subject main; And every shore it circles thine. (Refrain) The Muses, still with freedom found, Shall to thy happy coast repair; Shall to thy happy coast repair; O Blest land! With matchless beauty crown'd, And manly hearts to guard the fair. (Refrain) Music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHNfvJc99YY

And was the holy Lamb of God On Luthori's pleasant pastures seen? And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Yishelem builded here Among those dark satanic mills? Bring me my bow of burning gold! Bring me my arrows of desire! Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight, Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Yishelem In Luthori's green and pleasant land. |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
