I personally don't like the Star Spangled Banner. At all. The Polish one sounds pretty cool so does the East German one. I know its not a national anthem but the Königgrätzer Marsch is very cool. And no its NOT a Nazi song, Germany didn't even exist as a country when this was composed. All of Nazi symbolic is stolen especially swastika.

Actually swastika is indoeuropean thunder gods cross(thunder cross) Actually a Hindu a symbol as well. I heard some racist spray painted a swastika on a Hindu temple in the U.S, by trying to make them look like Nazis, but the racist guy was so stupid that he didn't realize the swastika is actually a good symbol in Hinduism lol

I once went to Bali and the Hindu temples had swastikas on them (one of my friends said it was a symbol of peace?). Swastikas had a quite good meaning, it's a shame Hitler tarnished it. EDIT: Did a quick google and it seems the swastika is more complex than it seems.

Hmm, Id have to look into the Native Americans, but seems interesting. That being said, we need to recognize that the swastika is near internationally recognized as a racist symbol.

And sadly it is wrong. Thunder god has always meant fairness and will

It is more than just complex, there can be made researches, that can be century long for uncovering thousands of years long mysteries

Even older than millennia, it is known for 10-20 000 years for sure, some say it is even older.

This is the Ethiopian National Anthem. It has no lyrics, just instrumental music, and it sounds quite triumphant and nice.
