The closing line was very haunting especially looking back at it in 2011. 80 years later, Peking has indeed been restored to the full glory of imperial China that seemed like a distant dream when this video was made. Juxtaposing the ruins of the forbidden city in this video with the video of Hu Jintao triumphantly emerging from the Forbidden city during the 2009 national day parade like the emperors of old really brings to life the closing remarks.

Altai similarities are in the language only still different Altai languages are not comprehensible to each other right away. In terms of Altai ethnics , there are clear differences among Mongolian, Manchus, Koreans , Japanese, Turkish in terms of customs and genetics.
In certain theories , Koreans and Japanese are not included in the Altai language family. Even their acceptance to the group is rather recent.
