[ID]The Star-Spangled Banner - Good Traditions Die Hard
mihail.cazacu
Hello Indonesia!
Do you remember the times the Romanian National Anthem was sung daily in your country? The Romanians were here to enjoy your hospitality and to have their ways with your companies and your Congerss.
Now you have 3000 Americans under your yoke. So it's time for you to learn the American National Anthem as well. Keep practicing it until the American flag flies over Jakarta.
"The Star-Spangled Banner" is the national anthem of the United States of America. The lyrics come from "Defence of Fort McHenry", a poem written in 1814 by the 35-year-old amateur poet Francis Scott Key after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by Royal Navy ships in Chesapeake Bay during the Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812. (taken from Wikipedia).
And now the lyrics:
O! say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Start practicing! Practice makes perfect!

@Ryanno 2:
1. I love my country in Real Life and in-game.
2. The Americans are our allies both in RL and in-game.
3. In-game the 3000 Americans under your occupation can and should screw your economy better than the Romanians did, because they are 10 times as many.
4. As Falco Peregrinus correctly remarked, you guys are in the wrong alliance from the beginning and therefore fair game.
booo, americans cant even read 😛
