	Comment on Best and worst national anthems Samizdata.net
		The Soviet Union national anthem is certainly the "best" I think (so good that after trying to ditch it they brought it back again...), but the old anthem of East Germany I think is pretty stirring as well.
		The anthem as adopted in 1944 mentions Stalin, and after his death and the demise of the personality cult the anthem was generally used without words.
		The South African anthem consosts of four verses: The first one is in Xhosa, the second one in Zulu, the third one in Afrikaans and the last one in English.

	Review of The Internationale
		Probably most famously, or infamously, “The Internationale” underwent an ironic transition from anti-establishment rallying cry to ideological apparatus, serving as the national anthem of the Soviet Union from 1917 until its downfall.
		Cognizant of “The Internationale’s” precarious position in contemporary global culture, Miller’s documentary casts its subject finally as a testament to endurance and transcendence—an anthem that demonstrates and inspires the sort of determination to overcome adversity and oppression that inspired Pottier to write the lyrics in the first place.
		Informed by a utopian vision of harmony yet bound indelibly to a Soviet militaristic aesthetic, the anthem has confirmed the failure to ensure lasting peace and social justice as often as it has rekindled the dream that such a goal is achievable.
