    Did either the Roman or Greek Empire have a national anthem?

    Question #96853. Asked by jimmycarlos. (Jun 21 08 9:01 PM)

    		No. National anthems didn't become widespread or popular until the late middle ages. The earliest true anthems were those of England and the Netherlands. (England's national anthem wasn't even set until the middle of the 18th Century.)
