      JJ, you need more videos where you ingratiate yourself to the Quebecois. With a little effort, you can be as notorious as Don Cherry in Quebec. Here's a couple of things you can write in the comments section of the French celebrity youTubers to get the ball rolling (English translations follow):
      1. Vous devriez remercier le Canada anglais pour la protection de la langue et de la culture françaises. Si vous étiez de l'autre côté de la frontière des États-Unis, il n'y aurait pas de langue ou de culture française en Amérique du Nord.
      2. Il n'est jamais trop tard pour apprendre la prochaine langue officielle du Québec: l'arabe.
      English Translations:
      1. You should thank English Canada for protecting the french language and culture. If you were on the other side of the usa border, there would be no french language or culture in North America.
      2. It's never to late to learn the next official language of Quebec: arabic.
      Please do not take their criticism to heart. It's impossible NOT to offend the Quebecois. Just say "hi" and you've offended them. One day they will decide you are not good enough to send them billions in transfer payments for being lazy, stupid and poor. You'll be sorry then.

      Because they talk about struggles and the revolution about how they were oppressed and where only nobility ruled them.
      Napoléon because he was sympathetic to polish cause and created duchy of warsaw, a sister state for polish and restored polish monarchy and even promised to return their historical borders at their back to them and grant independence after his glorious victory over Russia in 1812, which as you know he failed, even though he couldn't able to keep his territories for long after this, Polish made him inspire that a Polish state would be possible and didn't lose hope because before Napoléon in every country they went to ask for help didn't help them but revolutionary France and later Napoléonic France helped them, learn some history.

      @@leonardopalma1608 the history behind the word is not so regular: during and after WW1 (that Italy won) there were prisoners of Austria-Hungary in Italian jails and... well they wanted a revenge for the battle of Caporetto, so they were not well fed.
      Remember that Austria-Hungary was an empire that include part of the Balkans. Some prisoners coming from a certain region/country (now I don't remember which one) of Austria-Hungary kept saying "kruch!" which means bread. Notice that I don't if I wrote it well.
      So the association 'kruch -> Austrians' started. It was incorrect 😅 but Italians started mocking them by calling them crucchi.
      WW2 came, after 1943 Italy became an enemy of Germany and started a great Resistance movement in the centre and north of Italy that helped the Allies. This is when the association Austrians -> crucchi shifted to Germans -> crucchi, because this time they were the German speaking enemy. (And because Austria was then part of Germany).
      Aaaaand this is how we still call the Germans (ironically it happens rarely with the Austrians that we first associated with the word) "crucchi" during our modern-day battles: football matches 😂

    "During the European Revolutions of 1848, "Poland Is Not Yet Lost" won favor throughout Europe as a revolutionary anthem. This led the Slovak poet Samo Tomášik to write the ethnic anthem, "Hey, Slavs", based on the melody of the Polish national anthem. It was later adopted by the First Congress of the Pan-Slavic Movement in Prague as the Pan-Slavic Anthem"

      That's interesting, but one can also mention that in relation to the Polish national anthem! The Polish national anthem with the title "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego" (Dąbrowski's Mazurka) is not weird but quite interesting. With the quite known beginning: Poland has not yet perished,so long as we still live. The song was written in 1797 and served as a battle song in all Polish uprisings against the occupiers of Poland until it became the official anthem of Poland after freedom was regained in 1918.
      As mentioned in the comment above the Polish song Mazurek Dąbrowskiego served as a template (melody and text) for the Slovak poet Samo Tomášik, who wrote the song "Hej Sloveni" in 1834. In 1848 the Slavs Congress took place in Prague, where "Hej Sloveni" was accepted as the hymn of all Slavs.
      The Croatian patriotic reveille "Još Hrvatska ni propala dok mi živimo" ("Croatia Has Not Yet Fallen while we live") is also based on the prototype of the Polish song of resistance. The song is considered the anthem of the Illyrian Movement, which constituted a great part of the Croatian national revival.
      The text of Chubynsky's original poem from 1863, from which the Ukrainian national anthem is derived, beginning with the words Ще не вмерла Україна (Never perished is Ukraine's Glory and freedom) is also derived from the above-mentioned Polish song.
      The Slavic Sorbs minority in East Germany also wrote the song "Hišće Serbstwo njezhubjene" (Sorbentism has not yet died), based on the model of Mazurek Dąbrowskiego.
      The song of the Lithuanian Samogitia is also derived from the Polish Mazurek Dąbrowskiego and begins with these remarkable lines that illustrate the high degree of polonization of the Lithuanians. "Poland has not gone under when the Samogitans are still alive, and the Samogitian struggle will begin when they fight in Poland. Poland with Ruthenia, Samogitia and Lithuania will fight for freedom with such a holy struggle. "
      After 1945, the music of the Polish national anthems also became the music of the national anthem of Yugoslavia
      In any case, one can say that there are few countries in which the national anthem has such an important meaning for the national self-image as the Mazurek Dąbrowskiego in Poland. This can be heard particularly clearly during important international matches, when all Poles present sing the national anthem like one man.
      How important this Polish national anthem is for Poles can be seen from this facts: The Anthem of the Republic of Poland should be performed or played in a manner that warrants its due honor and respect. In particular, it is forbidden to perform a hymn with a changed melody or text. The national anthem can only be performed in vocal, instrumental and vocal-instrumental arrangements that comply with the legal melodic version and its harmonization. Violation of the provisions on the Anthem of the Republic of Poland is an offense that can result in arrest or a fine. The existence of legal protection for the anthem results directly from the Constitution of the Republic of Poland (Article 28).

      Indeed. The anthem of the EU certainly isn't a "national" anthem. In fact it is not really specifically the EU's anthem either. It is the anthem for all of Europe, designated as such by the Council of Europe which almost every European country is a member of (including Russia). The EU merely adopted that as it made sense. In the meanwhile the this anthem is much better known as the EU's than of the Council of Europe's. Exactly the same goes for the EU's flag. There it might be even much more pronounced as that flag is fairly well known and almost everyone will associate it with the EU rather than with Europe as a whole. But actually every member of the Council of Europe can fly that flag, which basically means almost any country in Europe, including Russia as mentioned before. As it is so heavily tied to the EU nowadays non-EU member states will probably only do so when they want to emphasise a link to the EU however.
      PS: I really do like that unofficial latin lyrics version though. First of all I like the idea of using Latin for these cermonial things of the EU (some instution logos also use Latin names) but it also is very well made I think. That said, there is nothing wrong with using the Ode to Joy just in its instrumental version either.

      That's interesting, but this is not a line of text from the Polish national anthem, but from a polisch national song "Rota" (The Oath), which is very well known in Poland. But one can also mention that in relation to the Polish national anthem! The Polish national anthem with the title "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego" (Dąbrowski's Mazurka) is not weird but quite interesting. With the quite known beginning: Poland has not yet perished,so long as we still live. The song was written in 1797 and served as a battle song in all Polish uprisings against the occupiers of Poland until it became the official anthem of Poland after freedom was regained in 1918.
      As mentioned in the comment above the Polish song Mazurek Dąbrowskiego served as a template (melody and text) for the Slovak poet Samo Tomášik, who wrote the song "Hej Sloveni" in 1834. In 1848 the Slavs Congress took place in Prague, where "Hej Sloveni" was accepted as the hymn of all Slavs.
      The Croatian patriotic reveille "Još Hrvatska ni propala dok mi živimo" ("Croatia Has Not Yet Fallen while we live") is also based on the prototype of the Polish song of resistance. The song is considered the anthem of the Illyrian Movement, which constituted a great part of the Croatian national revival.
      The text of Chubynsky's original poem from 1863, from which the Ukrainian national anthem is derived, beginning with the words Ще не вмерла Україна (Never perished is Ukraine's Glory and freedom) is also derived from the above-mentioned Polish song.
      The Slavic Sorbs minority in East Germany also wrote the song "Hišće Serbstwo njezhubjene" (Sorbentism has not yet died), based on the model of Mazurek Dąbrowskiego.
      The song of the Lithuanian Samogitia is also derived from the Polish Mazurek Dąbrowskiego and begins with these remarkable lines that illustrate the high degree of polonization of the Lithuanians. "Poland has not gone under when the Samogitans are still alive, and the Samogitian struggle will begin when they fight in Poland. Poland with Ruthenia, Samogitia and Lithuania will fight for freedom with such a holy struggle. "
      After 1945, the music of the Polish national anthems also became the music of the national anthem of Yugoslavia
      In any case, one can say that there are few countries in which the national anthem has such an important meaning for the national self-image as the Mazurek Dąbrowskiego in Poland. This can be heard particularly clearly during important international matches, when all Poles present sing the national anthem like one man.
      How important this Polish national anthem is for Poles can be seen from this facts: The Anthem of the Republic of Poland should be performed or played in a manner that warrants its due honor and respect. In particular, it is forbidden to perform a hymn with a changed melody or text. The national anthem can only be performed in vocal, instrumental and vocal-instrumental arrangements that comply with the legal melodic version and its harmonization. Violation of the provisions on the Anthem of the Republic of Poland is an offense that can result in arrest or a fine. The existence of legal protection for the anthem results directly from the Constitution of the Republic of Poland (Article 28).

" Hey Slavs " was the southern Slavic adaptation of the song that was used as the anthem of Yugoslavia , and so was the Polish version " Mazurek Dabrowskiego " that was made during the napoleonic wars . But It was originally supposed to be a Pan-Slavic anthem , and I guess that every Slavic country has it's own version of the song .

    (Tshar*nye*tsky)
    He was indeed a controversial figure, but claiming that "he was best known for organising a massacre of Polish Jews during [the Swedish Deluge]" is nothing but claiming historical inaccuracies and misleading generalizations.
    Czarniecki is best known as one of few commanders who remaind loyal to the Polish Crown after Swedish invasion. In fact, he did allow his man to kill civilians (Polish Jews, peasantry and nobility) but when they were suspected of treason. Jewish people were often hired by Swedish army to spy on Polish army, some peasants cooperated with invaders and nobles usually did not react well to contributions and sometimes prevented their people from defending against Swedes or joining Crown's army. For sure many innocent people died as a result of these actions, but it was not an ethnic cleansing.
    As for his appearance in Polish Anthem;
    the line You mentioned does not translate as "making war on the Swede" but more like "Swedish invasion" (zabór/rozbiór) and it appears there as historical background to example of patriotic attitude.

    Fun Facts : Malaysia's Anthem, Negaraku (Translated to English as My Nation) is actually a ripoff of one of its state, namely Perak. The music is taken from that state's anthem at that time, Terang Bulan (Moonlight Shine or Moon Bright) and the lyrics were adjusted to suit the nation. The music itself was inspired from a French popular melody, La Rosalie by Jean Beranger. The music is still in use in said state, that readjusted the song into what is now called Allah Lanjutkan Usia Sultan (Allah Continues The Age of Sultan). And yes the national anthem doesn't include any country in the lyrics including the country itself. It was meant to symbolize the sovereignty of the Lord Almighty, the citizen and a prayer to the sultan to rule safely.

    You should've added Mexico, original music and great lyrics which is 10 verses long. There's also an interesting story behind it. Back in the day they were holding a competition to determine the national anthem. Francisco Bocanegra got convinced by his wife to join the competition and actually got locked by his wife in a room until he finished witting the anthem. The music was composed by a Jaime Nuno if I remember correctly and it won the competition and became the official one.

      Austria is possibly the only Republic given pseudo state funerals to its former ruling house, where then the emperor's anthem is sung. So in a way, this anthem you say fell into disuse is acutally still sometimes sung in quasi official events.

The lines of the Philippine National Anthem are mostly 2-5 words long, each stanza roughly 4 lines each, and 5 stanzas in total. We sing it every time there's a "Flag Ceremony" (public school term) aka a "Morning Assembly" (private school term; note that most private schools tend to use both the former and the latter interchangeably rather than just using the latter).

    The Yugoslav anthem was Hey Slavs which is the "Anthem of all Slavs" and since Poland is a slavic country it kinda makes sense why their anthem has the same melodhy. Also HEy Slavs was translated into almost all (if not all) slavic languages and a changed versin of it was once a hymn of the Fascist Slovak state (1939-1945) called Hey Slováci.

    • @GreatPolishWingedHussars
      @GreatPolishWingedHussars 2 года назад

      After 1945, the music of the Polish national anthems with the title "Mazurek Dąbrowskiego" (Dąbrowski's Mazurka) also became the music of the national anthem of Yugoslavia. Probably because of this fact. The Croatian patriotic reveille "Još Hrvatska ni propala dok mi živimo" ("Croatia Has Not Yet Fallen while we live") is also based on the prototype of the Polish song of resistance Mazurek Dąbrowskiego. The song is considered the anthem of the Illyrian Movement, which constituted a great part of the Croatian national revival.
      Perhaps that is also the reasons why this music became the national anthem of Yugoslavia. The Polish song Mazurek Dąbrowskiego served as a template (melody and text) for the Slovak poet Samo Tomášik, who wrote the song "Hej Sloveni" in 1834. In 1848 the Slavs Congress took place in Prague, where "Hej Sloveni" was accepted as the hymn of all Slavs.
      That can also be added to topic of the Polish national anthem! The Polish national anthem is not weird but quite interesting. With the quite known beginning: Poland has not yet perished,so long as we still live. The song was written in 1797 and served as a battle song in all Polish uprisings against the occupiers of Poland until it became the official anthem of Poland after freedom was regained in 1918.
      It is also worth mentioning that this Polish song has been translated out of solidarity with the Polish rebels into 17 European languages ​​and sung at various democratic and national uprisings in the so-called Springtime of Nations.
      The text of Chubynsky's original poem from 1863, from which the Ukrainian national anthem is derived, beginning with the words Ще не вмерла Україна (Never perished is Ukraine's Glory and freedom) is also derived from the above-mentioned Polish song.
      The Slavic Sorbs minority in East Germany also wrote the song "Hišće Serbstwo njezhubjene" (Sorbentism has not yet died), based on the model of Mazurek Dąbrowskiego.
      The song of the Lithuanian Samogitia is also derived from the Polish Mazurek Dąbrowskiego and begins with these remarkable lines that illustrate the high degree of polonization of the Lithuanians. "Poland has not gone under when the Samogitans are still alive, and the Samogitian struggle will begin when they fight in Poland. Poland with Ruthenia, Samogitia and Lithuania will fight for freedom with such a holy struggle. "
      In any case, one can say that there are few countries in which the national anthem has such an important meaning for the national self-image as the Mazurek Dąbrowskiego in Poland. This can be heard particularly clearly during important international matches, when all Poles present sing the national anthem like one man.
      How important this Polish national anthem is for Poles can be seen from this facts: The Anthem of the Republic of Poland should be performed or played in a manner that warrants its due honor and respect. In particular, it is forbidden to perform a hymn with a changed melody or text. The national anthem can only be performed in vocal, instrumental and vocal-instrumental arrangements that comply with the legal melodic version and its harmonization. Violation of the provisions on the Anthem of the Republic of Poland is an offense that can result in arrest or a fine. The existence of legal protection for the anthem results directly from the Constitution of the Republic of Poland (Article 28).

The former one is The Internationale, more commonly associated with leftism around the world, and the famous one, the melody of which is still used in Russia with different lyrics. Which one are you preferring here?
      And technically you might even be accidentally referring to the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, where they also used a translated version of the French anthem, written to be related to class warfare, Workers' Marsailles.

    Fun fact: In the Philippine National Anthem, "Lupang Hinirang," you can hear the first two notes of Spain's "Marcha Real" in the beginning of the first and second stanzas; Verdi's "Grand March from Aida" in the beginning of the fourth the fifth stanzas; and the first notes of France's "La Marseillaise" in the beginning of the sixth stanza.

    Czarniecki in fact was very cruel general (he gained wealth of ruthless pillages ofc but that's not the case here) but was not a mass murderer, and did not directly ordered his men to do such things. Also during the deluge Commonwealth lost half of the population and some historians enguilting him of the pogrom seem to forget his most important achievements: his fight for the homeland and his loyalty to Commonwealth, which are commemorated in our anthem.
    And a point about Napoleon; Mazurek Dąbrowskiego was a song written by a soldier of Polish Legion in Italy: _a force that literally fought under Napoleon's command_. Also Napoleon created semi-autonomous Duchy of Warsaw, which survived up to 1864 under the rule of Russian Tsar as Polish Kingdom. Many Polish soldiers fought and died in napoleonic wars as his soldiers, and there was large Polish army in the Great Army of 1812. (Also one of bravest Polish generals; Józef Poniatowski, was appointed a marshall of France as the first foreigner to recieve this title ar the 2nd day of Lepzig battle (he died next day on the battlefield.))

    Actually, the lyrics of the Chinese anthem you mentioned just before that line were changed for a short period of time to be more reverend of Mao. It happened after Mao's death and the end of the Cultural Revolution, so technically Mao didn't "make" it. However, the successor of Mao, Hua Guofeng, was a hardline Maoist, and the original lyrics were written by Tian Han, who was prosecuted in the Cultural Revolution and died from being tortured. The lyrics were changed in 1978 but were quickly changed back to the original one after Hua Guofeng lost power and Tian Han was rehabilitated.

    Or how the anthem of the Netherlands still pledges loyalty to the king of Spain because it was written at the time when they were a part of the Spanish Empire. They still haven't changed it yet.
    Wilhelmus van Nassouwe
    ben ik, van Duitsen bloed,
    den vaderland getrouwe
    blijf ik tot in den dood.
    Een Prinse van Oranje
    ben ik, vrij onverveerd,
    William of Nassau, scion
    Of a Dutch and ancient line,
    Dedicate undying
    Faith to this land of mine.
    A prince I am, undaunted,
    Of Orange, ever free,

    • @Quintinohthree
      @Quintinohthree 5 лет назад +4

      No, it was written when the Netherlands (including much of what is now Belgium) were rebelling against the Spanish. The anthem is the first of 15 stanzas of the song and is written from the perspective of William of Orange, who was the governor of the Netherlands. If you read carefully you'll notice that he emphasizes how he is first and foremost loyal to his fatherland. The final two lines do not swear loyalty to the King of Spain but rather say that William had always been loyal to the King. He is justifying his rebellion by saying he is an honourable man who is merely resisting tyranny in loyalty to the fatherland that had kept its promises to the King.

    The anthem is not called "O, Slovaks." Slovaks are the other half of Czechoslovakia and are Western Slavic, with Poland and the Czech Republic. (Although yes it was first *written* under this name) It would be better when referring to Yugoslavia, to use "Hey, Slavs," or "Hej, Slaveni."
    Also, it's the other way around. It has been used as a pan-slavic anthem before Poland adopted it in 1926. You could say they both ripped it off as the Polish and Yugoslav versions both changed something from the original song. Video is still cool though, bro.
