Bill: Proper National Athem
Details
Submitted by[?]: Kaiserliche Hulsterreichische Partei
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 2199
Description[?]:
| We find it odd that almost all of the national symbols of Gishoto, are Gishoton except the national athem. Thusly we propose a proper Hulstrian Waltz with a few words added as the new athem. |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: May glory crown you, courageous Sovereign, You, the gallant Gishotoi, Emperor of Gishoto, our glorious ruler, May he live for many years to come And may the number of his subjects increase. Let every Gishotoi sing this with joy.
Current:
| 川が流れ、平野が広がる地に、 太陽の抱擁の下、露の優しい潮時に、 海と山々の間、美の誇りに、 自由の歩みの中、団結して立つ。 勇気の地よ、春の最初の日のように緑、 かつて勇敢な者たちがその命を捧げた君のために。 彼らの犠牲は、永遠に私たちの権利として残る、 自由の子供たち、調和の中で祈ります。 多様な系統から、一つの国、大胆で自由な、 すべてに見える統一の遺産。 二つの民族の地、連帯の中で、 私たちが永遠に大切にする、平和と統一の中で。 ====================================== In Ländern, wo Flüsse fließen und Ebenen weit sich strecken, Unter der Sonne Umarmung, im Tau's sanften Wecken, Zwischen dem Meer und Gipfeln, in Schönheit's Stolz, Stehen wir vereint, im Freiheitsschritt so holz. Oh Land des Mutes, grün wie der Frühling's erster Tag, Für dich, gaben die Tapferen einst ihr Leben, ohne Klage. Ihr Opfer, unser Geburtsrecht, für immer zu bleiben, Kinder der Freiheit, in Harmonie wir treiben. Aus diversen Strängen, eine Nation, mutig und frei, Ein Vermächtnis der Einheit, für alle sichtbar dabei. Ein Land zweier Völker, in Solidarität, Mögen wir für immer bewahren, in Frieden und Einigkeit. ====================================== In lands where rivers flow and plains stretch wide, Beneath the sun's embrace, in dew's gentle tide, Between the sea and peaks, in beauty's pride, We stand united, in freedom's stride. Oh, land of valor, green as spring's first day, For thee, the bold once gave their lives away. Their sacrifice, our birthright, forever to stay, Children of liberty, in harmony we pray. From diverse strains, one nation, bold and free, A legacy of unity for all to see. A land of two peoples, in solidarity, May we forever cherish, in peace and unity. |
Proposed:
| Tradition, and Honor, and Country, For the Monarchy; This let us all pursue, Brotherly in heart and deed; Tradition, and Honor, and Country, Are the pledge of joy; Prosper in this all of good Gods graces, Prosper, Hulstrian homeland! |

| Message | Yet again the evil Gishoton are shoving their culture down the throats of the Gishotoi people, and then you expect us to obey you (and your Emperor who is the "Defender of the Lutheran Faith" and not the Shinto)? What stupidity! |

| Message | The current anthemn only celebrates a minority of the population, we didn't complain about the evil Gishotoi shoving their culture down our throats. The only stupidity around here is present within the Imperial Apparatus. |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
