England's National Anthem: God Save the King

A Historical Patriotic Tune

England, a constituent country of the United Kingdom, does not possess an official national anthem. However, "God Save the King" has been traditionally regarded as the English national anthem at sporting events and other official occasions. This patriotic song was first publicly performed in London in 1745 and has since become synonymous with the monarchy.

The National Anthem of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

"God Save the King" also serves as the national anthem of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, including all Commonwealth realms, their territories, and the Crown. Its lyrics extol the virtues of the reigning monarch and express a prayer for their well-being.
