National Anthem

On 3 April 1457, a measure introduced by the then Count of Sussex, Viceroy, was put before Sussex Council XXIII. He proposed that Sussex adapt a National Anthem for Sussex, entitled For Sussex, which had been was written by the then Poet Laureate of Arundel. It can be heard here click to listen. Viceroy suggested replacing the English national anthem with this new anthem for Sussex. His measure was passed by a vote of 8 in favour and 2 abstaining.

The status of the "National Anthem" for Sussex is yet to be determined in light of Sussex rejoining England.

Sussex's Separation from England

On 16 September 1456, Sussex Council XIX voted to Separate from the Kingdom of England, and no longer recognize King LongJohnSilver, by a vote of 8 in favour, 2 against, and 1 abstaining from voting. Those in favour of Separation from England were Shawn_math, Wench, Zerostar, Bryce, Amarilos, Zeathea, Tadulla, and Scarletscarteen. Those who voted against Separation from England were Gardexer, and Selene. Ekaterine choose to abstain on the vote, while the other remaining member of Council, Kissit had previously passed away.

In response, the then Regent of England, Chris_braveheart issued a writ of Attainder against all of the members of the Council who voted for, or abstained, from the measure to Separate from England and renounce King LongJohnSilver's authority. This meant that those councilors who had voted for, or abstained the measure to Separate, had all their titles and lands stripped from them, and they were barred from holding titles or lands in England in the future.

The House of Parliament passed a measure condemning the Separation. The official English position was that county councils lacked the authority to separate themselves from the King and England.

Sussex Council XIX's decision to Separation from England created a great deal of division and conflict within Sussex which lasted until Sussex Council XXVII's move to reunite with England on 10 January 1458. There are threats by the current Council of Sussex to leave England again.
