Line 21:
'''"Of Valor and Glory"''' is the [[w:national anthem|national anthem]] of [[Oscrelia]]. The lyrics were written as a poem by the poet and revolutionary Daniel Gardner during the overthrow of the Oscrelian Monarchy. The music was written two years later by the Staynish composer Lucas Wolfe, who was personally commissioned by the Chancellor of the fledgling Oscrelan republic.
 
The National Symbols Act, passed by the [[Oscrelian National Assembly]] in the beginning of 1921, officially established the song as the official national anthem.
 
Under the [[Thorntonist Oscrelia|Thornton regime]], performance of the song was banned as "subversive" and "degenerate," though the song was still used by the government-in-exile of the democratic Oscrelian government. After the restoration of democracy in 1975, the anthem's status was reaffirmed by the Flags and Symbols Resolution of 1975.
