A national anthem (also national hymn national song etc.) is a generally patriotic musical composition that evokes and eulogizes the history traditions and struggles of its people recognized either by a nation’s government as the official national song or by convention through use by the people. The majority of national anthems are either marches or hymns in style. The countries of Latin America tend towards more operatic pieces while a handful of countries use a simple fanfare.
