History

Valdoria was not born in comfort or peace. The nation was created after years of oppression, when a courageous slave led a rebellion against an authoritarian ruler. Along with former soldiers who no longer believed in injustice, the people crossed the mountains in search of freedom and a fairer way of living. From this journey, Valdoria was born.

​

The fight for independence shaped who we are today. Freedom, equality, courage, unity, and solidarity are not just words in Valdoria... they are values earned through sacrifice. Every citizen carries this history with pride, knowing that the country exists because people stood together and refused to stay silent.

​

To honor this past, Valdoria organizes the Festival of Voices every year. This national celebration is a moment of remembrance and unity. Through music, poetry, and dance, citizens from all regions share stories inspired by the struggle for freedom. The festival reminds us that voices once silenced helped build our nation.

​

The closing moment of the festival, when thousands sing the Song of Valdoria together, symbolizes the heart of our history. It is a promise that the sacrifices of the past will never be forgotten and that every voice will always matter.

The Song of Valdoria

Verse 1

Over the mountains, through the flame,

We carried hope, we carried a name.

Hands unchained, hearts open wide,

Together we rose, side by side.

​

Chorus

Valdoria, our home, our light,

Born from courage, burning bright.

In every voice, our freedom rings,

In unity, the people sing.

​

Verse 2

Tears and triumph shaped our land,

Built by heart, not by command.

The stars above, the drums below,

Our spirit shines, forever aglow.

Chorus (repeat)

Valdoria, our home, our light,

Born from courage, burning bright.

In every voice, our freedom rings,

In unity, the people sing.

​

Bridge

From every soul, a single sound,

Of love and strength that knows no bound.

One nation strong, one song, one flame,

Valdoria will live its name.

​

Final Chorus

Valdoria, our home, our light,

Free and fearless, day and night.

In every heart, our story stays,

Valdoria forever raised.
