La Marseillaise

I think this has become their anthem because back then they were ready to spill blood at any moment, and never backing down to what they believed.. Without a king they went wild and other parts of Europe wanted to control the French. Instead the French would fight back arming all citizens. They didn’t think they were tyrants only making thing easier for them. In the anthem is states that they are “less jealous of surviving them than of sharing their coffins.”  I think they weren’t jealous of the others, but would rather see them in coffins alone. Never backing down to what they believed.
