Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Formerly at her call, our ancestors, with strength, courage, honour and ardour, knew how to engage in mighty battles, 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 we share in our eternal, bright hope for the future.
Current:
(Kunikata): 海ゆかば 水漬く屍 山ゆかば 草生す屍 帝の 辺にこそ死なめ 返り見はせじ (Sekowan): 海ゆかば 水漬ちゅる屍 山いかー 草生する屍 帝ぬ 辺んかいどぅ死なめい けーいんーじぇーさじ (Luthorian): If I go far away to the sea I shall leave my bones there If I go far away to the mountains I shall leave my bones there Without one regret I shall sacrifice for His Majesty And for my fatherland (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfBebI2oFp4) |
Proposed:
| Sekouo, Sekouo, no more militants! All the people in the country never fight! We hate people who believe in dieties And the golden sky shines bright! We love the emperor! But we are free to say that we don't He could probably execute us But we know that he actually won't So today we swing our flag, side to side, We do the helicopter move, standing on a box We are the best country in the world And no one contracts chicken pox. |

| Message | Our party will support a proposal to change the national anthem if a good alternative is presented, but this is shameful. |
| Date | 18:30:37, December 06, 2018 CET | From | 全国連盟党 (Zenkoku Renmeitō) | To | Debating the National Anthem Sucks Right Now, We Should Change It Act of 4496 |
| Message | I must admit, upon reading the proposed anthem, I keeled over laughing. The National Federation will oppose this bill out of sensibility, but we applaud the Anti-Imperialists for bringing humour to the political scale. |
| Date | 18:37:30, December 06, 2018 CET | From | 国民同盟党 (Kokumin Dōmeitō) | To | Debating the National Anthem Sucks Right Now, We Should Change It Act of 4496 |
| Message | The heretical nature of the proposed anthem deeply-offends the patriotic sensibilities of our members and supporters. Our glorious Emperor's sacrifices for this country, and all his toils and labours for the Sekowan people, deserve to be honoured and respected, not mocked as in the proposed anthem. 天皇陛下万歳！ ー 桜井 美智雄、国民同盟党の総裁 |

| Message | We find humor to be fine, however this shameful display is doing little to mock things in our political system that should be mocked and seems to show a lack of any real substance from the proposing party. |
