The Influence of Confucian Culture on Chinese CultureIntroductionConfucian culture, also known as Confucianism, was founded by Confucius during the Spring and Autumn Period, which gradually developed after the Dynasty Han with benevolence as its core. Since the Han Dynasty, Confucianism has been the official ideology and basis of traditional ideology in the vast majority of historical periods in China, and has also influenced many Southeast Asian countries in history. After a series of shocks, Confucianism still represented the core values ​​of the Chinese social public and represented Chinese culture and national tradition in the world (Littlejohn, 2010). In contemporary society, Confucian culture in China is spreading more and more, at the same time, its modern value is being valued by many countries in the world, and its international influence is also growing with the rise of China.

The theme of moderation is to consciously educate people to self-improve, self-supervise and self-educate, and train themselves to have the ideal personality. Basically, Confucian thinks that the root of revolutionary government lies in the will of the people, therefore, he should rule by the will of the people if he wants to achieve social governance, which has its own profound meaning (Chan, Cho, 2014).
