	Brazilian Flag Anthem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Brazilian Flag Anthem, or Hino à Bandeira Nacional, is an hymn dedicated to the country's flag.
		The anthem was presented by the first time in November 9, 1906 and was intended to be a replacement for the National Anthem.
		The Flag Anthem (as all other patriotic anthems and hymns) was highly praised in the past, especially during the 1964-1985 dictatorship but has lately lost some of its appeal.

	Brazil
		On the National flag is represented, rendered artistically, a view of the sky over Rio de Janeiro, with the constellation "Cruzeiro do Sul" [Southern Cross] at the meridian, imagined as seen by an observer placed on the vertical line including the zenith of that city, from outside the sphere seen on the flag.
		They both trace their common ancestry to the flag of the United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and the Algarve, which featured an armilliary sphere as supporter for the Portuguese coat of arms of the time, and which in turn was apparently used earlier as a symbol of the caravelles that sailed for Brazil.
		For details on the constellations on the flag and the correspondence between the stars and the states, see Astronomy of the Brazilian Flag.

	National Anthem, Italian National Anthem, USA National Anthem
		A national anthem is a generally patriotic musical composition that is evoking and eulogizing the history, traditions and struggles of its people, recognized either by a nation's government as the official national song, or by convention through use by the people.
		Anthems rose to prominence in Europe during the nineteenth century; the oldest song purporting to be a national anthem is the "Wilhelmus" from the Netherlands, written between 1568 and 1572 during the Eighty Years' War.
		Anthems by their nature have to be brief (the average is about one minute in length), yet many, if not most, manage to make them musically significant, and a true representation of the nation's musical character.

	Brazilian national anthem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Brazilian national anthem (from Portuguese: Hino Nacional Brasileiro) was written by Joaquim Osório Duque Estrada, and the musical setting was composed by Francisco Manoel da Silva in 1822.
		Several republicans suggested that the newly composed anthem commemorating the proclamation of the Republic should replace the music composed upon the foundation of the Empire, but Marshal Deodoro da Fonseca, head of the Provisional Government of the Republic, expressed his preference for the traditional anthem.
		Brazilian law stipulates that only one stanza must be played in instrumental renditions of the anthem, but both must be sung in vocal performances.

	Paraná (Brazil)
		The flag of Paraná was adopted in 1892 and had in its center the shield of the state.
		The 1947 flag was altered in 1990 by deleting a white band inscribed with the name of the state across the blue celestial sphere on the center and by changing the artistic rendering of the branches surrounding the sphere.
		When the flag and coat of arms were altered in 1990, the main reason was that the old symbols (from 1947) weren't in conformity with heraldic rules.

		Brazil's anthem was originally composed in 1822 (the year of independence) and first performed in 1831, but did not come into use until 1890, the year after the republic was established.
		At first, the anthem was wordless, but a competition for lyrics was held in 1909, a winner was chosen and, to celebrate the centennial of independence in 1922, the words were officially adopted.
		Brazil has several "patriotic songs" that are used as quasi-national anthems, the "Anthem for Independence" (the former national anthem), Anthem of the Proclamation of the Republic, Anthem to the Flag, and Song of the Expeditionary.

	Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo State (Brazil)
		The flag of Ribeirão Preto was devised in 1952 in preparation for the city’s hosting of a sports festival involving 5,000 athletes from cities in São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Paraná, and Mato Grosso.
		For the opening of the games, the cities were supposed to parade with their flags, but the host city didn’t have one.
		The colors of the flag, blue and white, were inspired by the streams that cross the city (blue) and the peace that reigns between the authorities and the citizens (white).

		The flag, however, was not addressed until six months later by decree No. 16,618 of 24 July 1947, which defined all the state symbols.
		Arthur Luponi, "The Flags of the States of Brazil: Espírito Santo," Flag Bulletin 16:114-117 (July-August 1977) says that in 1908 a "normal flag" of the same design as the old 19th century merchant ship identifying pennant for Espírito Santo was introduced, the idea being attributed to Deocleciano Oliveira, the state Secretary of Education and Culture.
		This flag is confirmed by one of a set of cards, issued with bars of Eucalol soap in the 1930s, showing the state flags of Brazil.

		Although São Paulo did not have an officially sanctioned flag until 1946, the flag designed by Ribeiro in 1888 as his proposed symbol for a republican Brazil was used from a very early period as the de facto state flag.
		Shortly after the ban on state flags was lifted in 1946, Interventor Mario Soares—the official appointed by Vargas to rule the state under the 1937 constitution-issued decree-law 16349 of 27 November 1946, “fully restoring our state symbols (flag and coat of arms).” This was the first legal act adopting the Paulista flag.
		The status of the historic flag was reaffirmed in the 9 July 1947 state constitution, but a dispute over whether the flag should have 15 stripes or 13 led the constituent assembly drafting the constitution to leave it up to the new state legislature to pass an act on the matter more definitively.
