Are there any episodes that you especially enjoyed?

That would help me narrow down what's going on.

Q2 answer is much easie...Good Morning, Dr. Russell<br /><br />Q2 answer is much easier than I thought. I was searching using state anthems and adding words like not in English or in other languages. That didn't work. <br /><br />About first anthem, as I understood wrong the part in which Wikipedia says: "The first national anthem to be officially adopted was La Marseillaise..." As your answer says there are others before. Therefore, searched to understand why I understood that, even [First national anthem], first Google result gives La Marseillaise.<br /><br />With [first national anthem in the world] <br /><br /><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_historical_national_anthems" rel="nofollow">Says it is the Polish national anthem "Bogurodzica", "Mother of God". </a> However, going to that article says it is a patriotic song not an anthem.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/322.html" rel="nofollow">CIA World Factbook</a> Field Listening: National Anthem, mentions for Poland:<br />Name: "Mazurek Dabrowskiego" (Dabrowski's Mazurka)<br /><br />Also mentions: <br /><br />Puerto Rico( I read this because Dr. Russell answer made me know the name and while reading noticed it has more information:<br /> <br />Name: "La Borinquena" (The Puerto Rican)<br /><br />Lyrics/music: Manuel Fernandez JUNCOS/Felix Astol ARTES<br /><br />Note: music adopted 1952, lyrics adopted 1977; the local anthem's name is a reference to the indigenous name of the island, Borinquen; the music was originally composed as a dance in 1867 and gained popularity in the early 20th century; there is some evidence that the music was written by Francisco RAMIREZas a commonwealth of the US, "The Star-Spangled Banner" is official (see United States)<br /><br />Finally, with [World national anthems unknown facts]<br /><br /><a href="https://www.national-anthems.org/facts.htm" rel="nofollow">Facts About National Anthems</a><br /><br />Out of topic, yesterday watched this video. It's worth watching it. The one made by same company : To the Human Race is beautiful. And this is much better. It has already more than 38 million views<br /><br /><a href="https://youtu.be/mhxGbJt9otE" rel="nofollow">Coca Cola México</a>Ramon Gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129830563029534511noreply@blogger.com
