Borussia, also known as Chant national prussien, was a patriotic Prussian song. It temporarily held the status of the national anthem. The melody is made by Gaspare Luigi Pacifico Spontini, and the text by Johann Friedrich Leopold Duncker.[1] Borussia is a neo-Latin term for Prussia and a female figure as Prussia's allegory in the song.
