Hvad hedder englands nationalsang?
God Save the Queen
England har ikke sin egen officielle nationalsang; "God Save the Queen" behandles som den engelske nationalsang, når England er repræsenteret ved sportsbegivenheder (der er dog nogle undtagelser fra denne regel, f.eks. i cricket, hvor Jerusalem bruges). Der er en bevægelse for at få indført en engelsk nationalsang, hvor Blake og Parrys "Jerusalem" og Elgars "Land of Hope and Glory" er blandt de bedste kandidater. Skotland har sin egen nationalsang, og Wales har sin egen nationalsang til politiske og nationale begivenheder og til brug ved internationale fodbold- og rugbyunion-kampe og andre sportsgrene, hvor disse nationer konkurrerer uafhængigt af hinanden. Ved alle lejligheder er Wales' nationalsang "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau" (mine fædres land). Skotland har ikke en enkelt nationalsang; "Scotland the Brave" blev traditionelt brugt indtil 1990'erne, hvor "Flower of Scotland" blev vedtaget. I Nordirland bruges "God Save the Queen" stadig som officiel hymne.
God Save the Queen
England has no official national anthem of its own; "God Save the Queen" is treated as the English national anthem when England is represented at sporting events (though there are some exceptions to this rule, such as cricket where Jerusalem is used). There is a movement to establish an English national anthem, with Blake and Parry's "Jerusalem" and Elgar's "Land of Hope and Glory" among the top contenders. Scotland has its own national song and Wales has its own national anthem for political and national events and for use at international football, rugby union and other sports in which those nations compete independently. On all occasions Wales' national anthem is "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau" (Land of my Fathers). Scotland has no single anthem; "Scotland the Brave" was traditionally used until the 1990s, when "Flower of Scotland" was adopted. In Northern Ireland, "God Save the Queen" is still used as the official anthem.
