“For more than 30 years, Spain’s victorious athletes have had to resort to humming their national anthem.

The lyrics for the “Royal March” which were written in General Franco’s era were dropped in 1975 because of their associations with his dictatorship.

But now the Spanish Olympic Committee has announced the results of a competition to find new words.”*
