The Grand Duchy of New Oldenburg was founded on June 1, 2022 by his His Imperial Majesty August IV via Imperial Decree X. The Emperor decided to expand the borders of New Prussia and then decided to annex two towns south of New Bavaria and New Saxony.

The current Grand Duke of Oldenburg is Prince Colton. Thanks to Joint Decree VI, New Oldenburg now has a state coat of arms, state motto, and lyrics for its state anthem.

The music is Ja, vi elsker dette landet. The lyrics were written in English and German by His Imperial and Royal Majesty, August IV.

The cross of red and purple is our great flag, {God bless our Grand Duke and our home land}
