Vers l'avenir


Vers l'avenir, less commonly known by its Dutch title Naar wijd en zijd, is a Belgian nationalist song which was also the national anthem of the Congo Free State. Upon the annexation of the Congo Free State as a colony of Belgium, this anthem was replaced with La Brabançonne, the national anthem of Belgium. Vers l'avenir's lyrics were written by Gentil Theodoor Antheunis. It was also adopted as the anthem of the Rexist Party, a Fascist political movement founded in 1935 by Léon Degrelle.
