We should pay particular attention to the Chinese anthem:
Like all anthems, it speaks to the ethos of the nation. Like most communist anthems, it is a march. It is a propagandist anthem, which reflects the Chinese government in general, calling its citizens to act in the face of danger (real or imagined). Like all communist anthems, it is rife with irony, affecting its citizens to rise up against slavery yet all Chinese citizens are burdened with governmental servitude.
Nonetheless, it's important to take note of the basic tone of this anthem and what it means in a world of China rising.
