I would be a capricious dictator, changing the anthem at a whim. I would expect my bevy of composers to be prepared, at any time, with a menu of new anthems to choose from.
(Also, how amused am I by some of the Russian answers to this? Dire Straits, really?)
Edit: Just remembered I used to play NationStates. I had a country. We had a flag, even! But I think the interwebs ate it. Alas for the great state of Zenduckia.

Date: 2011-02-20 05:51 pm (UTC)I expect my people would be quite accepting of my whims re: national anthem. I'm planning on a 4-day workweek and free healthcare. Plus everyone gets free vegan eclairs on my birthday, which is of course a national holiday; people who have to work that day may have another day of their choosing off, but will have to settle for vegan longjohns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_John_%28doughnut%29)
(also, as dictator of this blog, I will totally delete comments to edit them. oops)
