Anthem of Christian Democracy (Italy) - O bianco fiore
"O bianco fiore" ("English: O White Flower") is a traditional anthem of Italian Christian workers and Christian Democracy.
The anthem was written in 1906 by Dario Flori, a priest and supporter of trade union Catholics in Tuscany. The anthem was adopted by the Italian People's Party, "O bianco fiore" later became the official anthem of the Christian Democracy.
Others attribute the hymn to priest Amilcare Berzieri.
In 2000, an electoral alliance named "Biancofiore" was formed, which brought together the Christian Democratic Centre and United Christian Democrats parties (heirs to Christian Democracy) to contest the 2001 Italian general election.
Together, Francesco Cossiga and Pier Ferdinando Casini improvised a duet singing the hymn in 2009.

Topic
2021 is a special year for Slovenia. On 25 June, the small Adriatic republic celebrates its 30th independence anniversary from Yugoslavia. Only a few days later, Slovenia will take over the rotating EU Council Presidency for the second time since becoming an EU member on 1 July 2021. We will use this occasion to take a closer look at Slovenia in 2021, both when it comes to its domestic (political) developments, as well as its plans for its EU Council Presidency with relevance for Southeast Europe.
After independence in 1991, Slovenia experienced a politically very stable first decade, not only in comparison to other former Yugoslav republics, but also to most of its EU candidate peers from Central Europe. Endowed with comparatively high-quality administrative capacities, a stable party system and considered and economic powerhouse in the region, Slovenia topped most rankings as the region’s ‘frontrunner’. Still, during the last 20 years the country has seen a de-institutionalization of its party system and an ever more personalized style of politics, which has culminated in a high degree of polarization and the emergence of right-wing populism. Economically, the Euro member has witnessed a deep crisis during the global financial meltdown, and not yet returned to the high growth levels it experienced right after EU accession.
In our second round of discussion, we will take stock of the state of Slovenia’s democracy, constitutional order, media and economy thirty years after independence to ascertain in how far the country kept up with its regional frontrunner status. Besides a data-driven evaluation of the country’s performance, special attention will be given to the current state of democracy, media freedom and the recent debates about its deterioration. This is the second event of our two-part series on Slovenia on the occasion of its independence anniversary and upcoming EU Council presidency.

Together, Francesco Cossiga and Pier Ferdinando Casini improvised a duet singing the hymn in 2009.
Christian Democracy (Italian: Democrazia Cristiana, DC) was a Christian democratic political party in Italy. The DC was founded on 15 December 1943 in the Italian Social Republic (Nazi-occupied Italy) as the ideal successor of the Italian People's Party, which had the same symbol, a crusader shield (scudo crociato). As a Catholic-inspired, centrist, catch-all party comprising both centre-right and centre-left political factions, the DC played a dominant role in the politics of Italy for fifty years, and had been part of the government from soon after its inception until its final demise on 16 January 1994 amid the Tangentopoli scandals. Christian Democrats led the Italian government continuously from 1946 until 1981. The party was nicknamed the "White Whale" (Italian: Balena bianca) due to its huge organization and official color. During its time in government, the Italian Communist Party was the largest opposition party.
