Vores land, vores stolthed (Estmerish: "Our land, our pride") is the national anthem of Scovern. The lyrics were written first by poet Arthur Phillip Hammerl in 1802, while the music was composed separately by Samuel Wendland in 1836. The poem and later song become popular during the Bonnlitzer War, and was adopted as the official civil national anthem after the war's conclusion.
Initially Vores land, vores stolthed was second in precedence to the Kongens march, the royal anthem, which was played at all significant national occasions. After the monarchy gradually stripped back its role in Scovern's political life, Vores land, vores stolthed became more popular and by the 1960s was recognised as the country's national anthem, with Kongens march used solely for royal occasions.
