But still I choose it (surprise?  ).
Tho, if I would've been the one to decide back then, I would've picked the Finlandia for our anthem. Juuuust great!

Italy has quite nice one too, kinda remainds me of Das Boot. |
BTW the Jaeger march that you have in your sig has horrible translation of the most beutiful march we have, it hurts my Jaeger heart and Sibelius would turn in his grave.
It should be more like this.
The Jager March
Deep is our blow, our wrath invincible,
we have no mercy, no homeland.
Our whole happiness is at the tip of our swords,
our hearts may not give in.
Our war cry rings, enchanting the country,
which is severing its chains.
Our defiance may not tire,
until the people of Finland are free.
When lowered with despair were heads of the other citizens, the country,
we Jägers still believed.
There was a dark night in the heart, a thousands pains,
but one thought proud, holy:
We shall rise as the revenge of Kullervo,
it is sweet to pass the fates of war.
A new tale of Finland is to be born,
it grows, it rushes, it wins.
Häme, Karelia, shores and lands of Viena,
one great is Finland´s reign.
Its ideology can´t be driven by brute force,
away from beneath the northern sky.
Its Lion Flag is carried
by strong hands of Jägers,
Over thunderous, gory fields
towards the coast of rising Finland.
