This category brings together anthems connected with the Nizhny Novgorod region: the region's official symbols and the anthems of individual organizations. The Anthem of the Nizhny Novgorod Region — the song "Native Expanses with the Volga and the Oka" ("Родные дали с Волгой и Окою"), with lyrics by Valery Shamshurin — celebrates the open spaces along the Volga and the Oka and the ancient kremlin. Alongside it, the category also includes the anthem of the youth movement "Nur", which operates under the auspices of the region's Tatar national-cultural autonomy.
