Anthem of the Don Cossacks

Vskolykhnulsya, Vzvolnovalsya Pravoslavnyy Tikhiy Don (Russian: Всколыхнулся, взволновался православный Тихий Дон) is a Russian patriotic song. It was the anthem of the Don Republic (1918–1920) and is currently the anthem of the Rostov Oblast, a federal subject of Russia. It was adopted on 10 October 1996. It was originally written by Fyodor Anisimov in 1853, during the beginning of the Crimean War. It is the symbol of the Don Cossacks, due to which the anthem is also referred to as the Anthem of the Don Cossacks (Russian: Гимн донских казаков).
