The internationale

[Tanya Shivari]

The Internationale is [the Communists], [Anarchists], and [Socialists] theme song. It was originally written in French, but has been translated into upwards of 30 different languages including Russian, German, English, Hebrew, Chinese, and Japanese. It was the national anthem for the USSR from the 1920s until about 1944. The anthem was then changed to the Hymn Of The Soviet Union. The Internationale remains to this day one of the most widely recognized songs ever written. It is costumary that if you support what the song stands for (Fighting against tyrany and opression of your government, and making it so the working class prevails) you should take your right hand, and make a fist and hold the fist up in the air as a tribute to the inspirational song.
