I don't know about Chinese, but in Russian it's called a fatherland. So either it's yaoi, or at least one of the girls is bigender or a he/him lesbian or something.
„Отчизна” and „отечество” come from „оте́ц”, meaning father, hence fatherland. „Родина” comes from „род”, meaning family or kin (technically both come from Proto-Slavic or whatever). None of those are mother-related.
„Родина-мать” is a personification.
It's called "{Родина|Rodina}-{мать|mat'} {зовёт|zovyot}!" Родина being feminine and meaning homeland, мать meaning mother
