==History==
The song was first presented to the public as a choral work in the Grand Song Festival of Estonia in 1869 and quickly became a symbol of the [[Estonian National Awakening]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Miljan|first=Toivo|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=pUawCQAAQBAJ&pg=PA314|title=Historical Dictionary of Estonia|date=2015-05-21|publisher=Rowman & Littlefield|isbn=978-0-8108-7513-5|pages=314|language=en}}</ref>

"Mu isamaa, mu õnn ja rõõm" was officially adopted as the national anthem of Estonia in 1920, after the [[Estonian War of Independence]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Central Intelligence Agency|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=kskkBgAAQBAJ&pg=PT118|title=The World Factbook|date=2015-01-01|publisher=Masterlab|isbn=978-83-7991-213-1|pages=118|language=en}}</ref>

In 1944, the [[Soviet Union]] occupied Estonia, and "Mu isamaa, mu õnn ja rõõm" was subsequently banned by the Soviet government.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Miljan|first=Toivo|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=pUawCQAAQBAJ&pg=PA314|title=Historical Dictionary of Estonia|date=2015-05-21|publisher=Rowman & Littlefield|isbn=978-0-8108-7513-5|pages=314|language=en}}</ref> The [[Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic]] had its own official [[Anthem of the Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic|regional anthem]]. However, the [[Estonians]] could often hear their former national anthem, as Finland's state broadcaster [[Yle]]isradio, whose radio and television broadcasts were received in northern Estonia, played an instrumental version of the Finnish national anthem, identical to this song (except for an additional repetition of the last verse in the Finnish version), at the conclusion of its broadcast every night.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Miljan|first=Toivo|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=pUawCQAAQBAJ&pg=PA314|title=Historical Dictionary of Estonia|date=2015-05-21|publisher=Rowman & Littlefield|isbn=978-0-8108-7513-5|pages=314|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last1=Cloet|first1=Pierre-Robert|last2=Legué|first2=Bénédicte|last3=Martel|first3=Kerstin|date=December 2013|title=United in diversity: Anthems and Flags of the European Union|url=https://institutdelors.eu/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/flag-anthem-estonia.pdf|access-date=2022-01-17|website=[[Jacques Delors Institute]]}}</ref>
