1. Discover the origin of the official name and languages of your country.
2. Mention who were the first inhabitants of your country and how their culture influenced the nation.
3. What is miscegenation? Describe the main ethnic groups that formed the population of the country and in which one your family comes from.
4. Know, sing, and explain the meaning of two official hymns of your country (like independence, flag, declaration of independence, etc.), besides the national hymn.
5. Explain the origin of the national flag and its meaning.
6. Know what the defense system is of your country and how military enlistment works.
7. Explain the form of government in your country and how representatives are elected.
8. Know the names of the last five presidents of your country.
9. Participate in a civic/patriotic event, where government officials or representatives of the country participate.
10. Know what an ambassador is and tell a story of the behavior of the ambassador in foreign countries.
11. Why can we be considered ambassadors for Christ?
12. Explain the phrase: "We are only passing in this world, our true homeland is beyond the river."
13. Cite three Bible passages that portray the heavenly homeland.
1
The answer is completely dependant on where you live but should be easy to find out.
2
Again, the answer will completely depend on where you live. In countries with significant historical immigration you need to he looking at the native population. In the 'Old World' you may find yourself researching much further back.

Miscegenation is the interbreeding of people considered to be of different racial types. This will depend on which country and what your background is.

This should be easily discoverable online.
5
While you do this, check out the Flags Honor.

This could vary from zero defense (many smaller countries have no army or defense force. If you live in the USA this is a very involved question. Some countries rely on allies or protectors for security.
7
This could be a Republic or perhaps Parliamentry democracy.
8
Or Prime Ministers if the country is a Parliamentary democracy.
9
This can cover a wide variety of events. Perhaps a remembrance service, election event, or celebration of some sort. Ideally you will find a waybto participate not just spectate.
10
An ambassador is an official representative of a government to another government that usually lives in the capital of the other country. Sometimes ambassadors cover several smaller countries along with a primary country. An ambassador is not properly installed until they present a letter of appointment and are accepted by the other government.
Ambassadors are found in the Bible, functioning much like modern ambassadors function today. Examples include messangers from Hiram to King David, ambassadors to Solomon, delegations from Babylon to Judah pre-conquest and others. Enjoy finding and relating a story.
11
Christ is the King of Heaven and as His children we are His ambassadors on earth.
12
Our home is in Heaven, and we are going there with Jesus someday. Beyond the river is a way of saying beyond a border (often rivers form natural borders)
