Completed: REGIONAL ANTHEM

[Lord Nwahs]

The Ministry of Culture and Entertainment presents​

Regional Identity Crisis​

Nominations for Regional Anthem​

A few months back, Flemingovia the [insert official title here] proposed to the Regional Assembly that we should have a National Anthem. His proposed amendment to the Legal Code failed, however, and we are destined never to have an equivalent ever again...

Or so we thought.

The Regional Identity Crisis calls... no, it SCREAMS for some MUSIC. SOME BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. MUSIC SO BEAUTIFUL IT MUST BE THE REGIONAL ANTHEM.

Nominations begin now and end on the 4th of June, 2014, 0400 UTC. Only nominations posted on this thread will count. This time, each nation can only nominate once.

Have fun, and may the best, most epic anthem win!

Wow. I haven't heard that song since the late 70's. Renaissance was a great band!

Their late 70's version was better:

It'd probably make more sense if one were utterly pissed on rum or something.

I'm going to be Asian like I always do and suggest this in the hopes that people will vote (although most probably won't.)
