	Historical Chinese anthems - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A number of Chinese official and unofficial national anthems were made around the early 20th century, only two remain in use: the "National Anthem of the Republic of China" (Republic of China (Taiwan)) and the People's Republic of China's national anthem ("The March of the Volunteers").
		After the establishment of the provisional government in Nanjing, the Ministry of Education under Cai Yuanpei asked the public for possible anthem (as well as coat of arm), and the one whose lyrics was written by Shen Enyun (沈恩孕) and music by Shen Pengnian (沈彭年) was released as a draft in the newspaper.
		The anthem was released in July 1921 by the Department of National Affairs (國務院).

		While it lacks the 'big' sound usually associated with this anthem, it is distinctive - and is probably a quite good representation of how it might have sounded back in 1792.
		The anthems are performed by a chamber orchestra and consequently have neither the 'big' sound of a full orchestra, nor the martial sound of a military band.
