The "Hymn to Liberty" or "Hymn to Freedom" (Greek: Ύμνος εις την Ελευθερίαν, translit. Ýmnos is tin Eleftherían) is a poem written by Dionysios Solomos in 1823 that consists of 158 stanzas, which is used as the national anthem of Greece and Cyprus. It was set to music by Nikolaos Mantzaros, and is the longest national anthem in the world by length of text. In 1865, the first three stanzas (and later the first two) officially became the national anthem of Greece and, from 1966, also that of the Republic of Cyprus.

Macedonian (FYROM) National Anthem

"Denes nad Makedonija" (Macedonian: Денес над Македонија) is the national anthem of the Republic of Macedonia (FYROM). Both the music and lyrics date from the early 1940s. Todor Skalovski composed the music, while the lyrics were written by Vlado Maleski. It was adopted as the Macedonian national anthem in 1992, a year after the state's independence was declared from Yugoslavia. Before its adoption as the Macedonian national anthem, it was used as the regional anthem of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia, a constituent state of Yugoslavia.
