The national anthem of Slovenia is based on "Zdravljica", a carmen figuratum poem by the 19th-century Romantic Slovene poet France Prešeren, inspired by the ideals of Liberté, égalité, fraternité,[1] and set to music by Stanko Premrl. As the country's national anthem, it is one of the state symbols of Slovenia.
