Confucianism

Confucianism is a system of thought and behavior originating in ancient China, emphasizing virtue, social harmony, and familial responsibility, with core values including ren (benevolence), yi (righteousness), li (propriety), zhi (wisdom), and xin (sincerity). It was founded by Confucius and suppressed during the Legalist Qin dynasty, but flourished under the Han dynasty and influenced East Asian economic and social structures into the modern era. Confucianism remains influential in China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and regions with significant Chinese diaspora, with a modern revival underway in academic and cultural circles.learn more on wikipedia
