Line 84:
As the bloody fight for independence was fought, numerous rock songs spurred the population to action. Among them was [["This Free Land"]], which eventually was adopted as the national anthem. Out of this rose a democratic government; [[Chance Syng]] was elected president on January 9th, 1972 SD. This officially began the existence of Emberwood Coast as a sovereign nation.
Its lotus flag owes its symbol to a Morst loyalist, who is famously filmed shouting, "Let this land of sin rot with the cancers of its own vices!" When asked about the choice to include the flower, Shadow President Liesyour explained, "The lotus has long been a symbol of corruption and degeneracy; the same stigma awarded to those of minor races, genders, and sexualities. We are reclaiming this emblem, and in doing so our own identities, for liberty and freedom."
Syng was the president for eight years, ending their two term presidency on January 8th, 1980.
