The National Anthem (or People's National Anthem) is the main anthem to be used for all purposes.


As of June 2018, Taurimania was taken over by the Kingdom of Smårkland, under the command of King Kevin I of Smårkland.On 1 January 2020, the Government of Smårkland successfully passed an bill of renaming the micronation with no opposition, thereby announcing the new permanent name of Kingdom of Slovania will succeed the former name Kingdom of Smårkland.

National Anthem

The Slovanian national anthem is also known as "My Motherland" (Slovanian: Моя Родастина). The lyrics were written by His Majesty King and Prime Minister Kevin Zhu, and His Honorable Chancellor and Deputy Prime Minister Yuhan Guo. The anthem reflects on Slovanian culture and the passion of the Slovanian people for helping their country and government, as well as the achievements that the Government of Slovania has achieved for their people. It is also one of the first micronational anthems in the world to have each verse written in a different, but official languages of Slovania. Verse 1 is written in Slovanian, followed by verse 2 which is written in German, followed by verse 3 in Mandarin Chinese.

Although the Slovanian law does state that the anthem should be performed respectfully and for performers not to cause an offence, the music arrangement can be used and modified freely; should anyone try to deface the anthem and its lyrics and/or to defame the Slovanian Government using the anthem in any way, a penalty of an imprisonment of a minimum 10–15 years will be issued.

French, Ukrainian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Russian cuisine are among the most popular inter-ethnic choice of cuisine enjoyed by Slovanian people.

Slovanian Festive Gastronomy

During Christmas, the traditional Slovanian Christmas bread Rokhlyeb (Slovane: роһлеб, from the phrase рождественский һлеб, meaning Christmas bread) is usually eaten. The first Rokhlyeb was originally made in the shape of a wreath, filled with dried wild fruits and dried berries along with ground nutmeg, cinnamon, ground clove and ground all spice. Nut, plain and herb flavoured versions are also available, though the bread is usually shared and usually served with traditional mulled wine (does not matter if alcoholic or not). Slovanians usually dunk their Rokhlyeb in mulled wine as a traditional blessing due to their Taurimanian Orthodox beliefs.
