A national anthem is a generally patriotic musical composition that is formally recognized by a country's government as their state's official national song.
National anthems are used in a wide array of contexts.
Many states also have unofficial anthems, and countries may also have royal anthems, presidential anthems, state anthems, or anthems for sub-national entities that are also officially recognized.
