Of course, its influence in Asia is also considerable. These countries are quite representative: Japan, Korean Peninsula countries, and Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam. Since we are talking about the impact on the world, let's focus on the west. A few small examples: 1. According to Needham, a British scholar, Confucianism spread to Europe in the 2nd century. 2. The Travels of Marco Polo, a rich country infiltrated by Confucius, made Europe crazy. 3. Confucius thought had a great influence on France in 18 and 19 century. French writer Voltaire admired China culture. He read The Orphan of Zhao and changed it to Five Laws of Confucius Ethics, saying that if the world is like Confucius' benevolence, there will be no war. He put the statue of Confucius in his study and worshipped it day and night. The Declaration of Human Rights during the French Revolution wrote that "freedom belongs to all people, and the right to do everything that does not harm the rights of others is based on nature; Its rule is justice; Its guarantee is the law; Its moral boundary lies in the following maxim-don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you. " 4. In modern history, Shandong was once a German colony, and Wei Lixian, a German, went to China with the army to study Confucian culture. After returning to China, he became a professor at Frankfurt University. When teaching students, he spread a famous French saying: "The so-called economic theory and social theory are not as good as Confucianism. Western philosophers are eager to overthrow the predecessors' theories and replace them, while China used Confucianism for thousands of years. "In his view, Confucius thought is much better than western philosophy, so it can rule China for thousands of years. 5. 1772 Britain published a who's who in world history, and Confucius ranked first. Since then, the British have set up many Confucius research institutions in various places to study Confucius thought in depth. Johnston, a British missionary, also created the foreign language "Taifu" of the Qing emperor. When he was teaching the Qing emperor, he realized the value of Confucianism. He said, "The Four Books and Five Classics are as inseparable to China as Greek Latin is to British education. "Later, in the new Encyclopedia Britannica, there were more than 400 entries about Confucius.

6. America: Americans' understanding of Confucianism began in the19th century. After American missionaries came to China, they first read Confucian works and then set up missionary schools. In the process of combining the two ideas, Confucianism spread like wildfire and spread to the United States. 1844 Emerson, an American scholar, said, "Confucius is the center of China's culture and education and the Washington of philosophy." This sentence ignited the enthusiasm of Americans for Confucius. Since then, various research institutions have been set up all over the United States, and they have begun to devote themselves to the excavation of Confucius thought and oriental philosophy. 1974, the Confucius Cultural and Educational Foundation was established in the United States, and its members were all dignitaries from various countries, and it began to promote the world movement of respecting Confucius. Later, they also set up Confucius Institutes and Confucius Museums in various countries to "preach" Confucius Thought around the world. Chinese and overseas Chinese in the United States have also inherited the fine traditions of the ancients. They are hardworking, intelligent and creative, and there are many scientific and technological talents, and many celebrities and masters have appeared. The outstanding performance of overseas Chinese, in turn, confirms the educational value of Confucius' Confucianism and makes Confucius' thoughts more attractive and glorious. 7. Du Weiming, a professor at Harvard University in the United States, said: "Confucius thought should respond to many questions raised by western civilization. In this sense, Confucius is not only from China, but also from the world. "

Alas, the influence of others is too great. It's still so long after screening for a long time ~ ~
