    So, as a Hong Kong Independance advocate, I have written up the following lyrics for the Hong Kong anthem in English, as the Chinese one has been written.
    Feel free to improve it
    Hong Kong National Anthem
    Tune: Highland Cathedral

    From up upon us our future shines,
    To meet our goals is what we strive,
    In the chaos of this war-torn world
    Long in our peace and our liberty.

    Chorus:
    Oh, our home and our native land,(*)
    Our reign shall forever stand,
    Ne'er shall we forget our woes,
    And our reign shall stand

    To all the world shall our country face,
    And to the Lion Rock we salute.(*)
    From the Pearl to our Southern Coast,(*)
    Oh our reign shall last forever more(Repeat)

    Chorus

    Our values we shall ne'er forget:
    Liberty, peace and prosperity.
    On this fertile land we shall stand,
    We will reign forever more(Repeat)


    Footnotes(marked with *):
    Oh, our home and native land: This line is stripped from O Canada, incase you are wondering
    And to the Lion Rock we salute: The Lion Rock is a symble of the Hongkongers' spirits
    From the Pearl to our Southern Coast: The Pearl stands for the Zhujiang(Pearl River) and the Southern Coast refers to the coast with the South China Sea


    Tune::

    I don't go around telling people I maxed kits, I have like 4 or 5 maxed kits and I don't even tell, it's not that important or even hard to max civ
    I know, I still maxed it on the 4th day though :/

    I mean I can undrestand how you feel, Especially since I played Annihilation on release ( 2015 ) And now people from somewhere in the world come and claim themselves kings of Annihilation and that they knew about it before the existence of dinosaurs, and that they even lended a hand to develop it, but one can't controll what others name themselves or claim to be. All you can do is just prove em wrong in game.

    well if you are lying then i dont care i just realized wasting xp on maxing kits just to race so you can have a nickname like The First one who maxed [kit] i'm sorry if i offended you by telling myself i was the first one who maxed civ i guess maxing kits isn't a race after all now bye broken_robot :D [enjoy playing anni while i sit here and wait till i get unbanned on hypixel for negative behavior -.-]
    --- Double Post Merged, May 23, 2018 ---
    btw i think you should edit ur little mistake in what you said xd
    i dont remember because i have bad memory i think i played in 2014 or 2015 but someone said i was in anni PRE beta but i think they are lying because that time i used to play skywars alot and didn't even know about anni like anni wasn't even on the server selector list i just realized your ign is like my best friends ign but i dont know where he went :( he helped me get Z on prison and i argue with him a little but it was a joke X20X <-- bff ;D

    Hong Kong, Chinese:香港, is a former British colony on the coast along the South China Sea, and is one of the only two Special Administration Regions of China, the other one being Macau on its west side. It borders the city of Shenzhen in the north and currently has just over 7 million people.


    BTW, the original chinese lyrics by someone called Hans Jürgensmeyer:
    偉哉香江 我城我等家邦
    傲覽碧海 彪炳戰績輝煌
    仁義禮智 隨伴乘風破浪
    垂範東方 履途挽手逕創
    念城邦 立憲遵治道
    歐亞古禮 共冶一爐
    效龍獅 尚智尊道義
    矢勇矢德致志
    美哉香江 似洋紫荊茂盛
    耀眼光彩 彰高貴顯尊榮
    苗裔遍世 凝聚同心唱詠
    樂禮鏗鏘 四夷也當謁敬 (重覆)
    自由港 未怕海浩瀚
    自強不朽 是我海岸
    太平山 做我等助佑
    敦我克己奮鬥
    勇武香港 眾民處變不驚
    盡每分光 光顯社稷威名
    無懼戰鬥 無懼捨生獻命
    榮耀蒼天 至仁至尊至聖 (重覆)

    Which roughly translates to(Not singable):
    Glorious Hong Kong, our city and our homeland
    Having a glorious view of the sea, her battle records are glorious
    Kindness, righteousness, politeness and wisdom, helps us brave the waves
    The role model of the Orient, our past are carved by us
    Chorus:
    A city-state, our constitution protects our past
    The traditions of the East and the West are mixed here
    Following our ancestors, we respect our traditions
    We respect the brave and the righteous

    Beautiful Hong Kong, like the Bauhinia Flower
    She shines brightly in nobility and pride
    Our offsprings are all over the world, and we sing hand in hand
    Our traditions are respected even by the most barbaric (Repeat)

    CHorus:
    A free port, never scared of the deep seas
    Self-sustaining and strong, this is our coast
    Victoria Peak is our blessing and protection
    And it reminds me to fight strongly for our country

    Mighty Hong Kong, her people are never scared of change
    With all our might, we carve the glory of our community
    Never scared of battle, never scared of giving up my life
    Glory to the sky, the kindest, the most respectful, the holiest(Repeat)
