Marseilles (French spelling Marseille) is more than 2,600 years old, but never was the Capital of France. However during the French revolution it sent regiments of volunteers to Paris. The war song they had adopted was soon renamed 'la marseillaise' as they popularised it on their journey, and became under that name, the French national anthem.
