Lazia, 21 December 2021 — The National Convention of 2019 has removed the official status of the national folk dance, the national gemstone and the national stone; the Driekusman, the ruby and sandstone are no longer official symbols of the Confederation.

The Driekusman, the ruby and sandstone lost their official standing among the Confederation’s symbols, part of a pruning of Mahusetan national emblems. The same day the National Convention adopted, in a more whimsical vein, a national microbe — the yoghurt bacterium.
