Freedom for Besmenia (Besmenian: Freiheit für Besmenien) is since 1960 the national anthem of the Federal Republic of Besmenia. As the national anthem, it consists of the melody of the so-called Federal Song and the poem of the same name Freedom for Besmenia from 1952 by Rudolf Gruber. Gruber's poem describes the wish for the end of the Besmenian division on both sides as well as the fight for freedom in West Besmenia against the dictatorship.
The national anthem, like the flag of Besmenia, the coat of arms of Besmenia and the Besmenian national emblem, is considered a state symbol.
