He's talking about the 1911 Chinese revolution[1], taking down the last dynasty of China and beginning of the Republic of China. All is not so bright however, a powerful general was made president because he was instrumental in the revolution; But his greed and death 5 years later leads to the Chinese army splitting among local warlords. It won't be until 1928 China is unified again[2].
