I think the national anthem is a product of the bottom-up nationalism of republics (or states that wish to project the image of a republic).

The Qing Dynasty had a National Anthem called 鞏金甌 (Gong Jin'ou or Cup of Solid Gold) and there's an article on it
on Wikipedia. It was only in effect for apparently six days before the Qing Dynasty fell.
You can hear it here...

Oh, sorry, I saw manchukuo, but I must have missed the word Qing.

IMO I believe the concet of "Nationalism" is more of a modern creation (where there is an association with common a common language, customs etc).
In the anceint world association and loyalty was based mainly to one's king & their kingdom. There were city states like Sparta, Athens who fought against each otehr even though they shared the same language & similar cultures. The loyalty wasnt with ethnicity like we have in the modern world.
