In the first century, Confucius culture went south to Vietnam and east to Japan. As early as the early Ming Dynasty, North Korea established Sungkyunkwan Hall in Seoul, offering sacrifices to Confucius in the Confucian Temple, which promoted the development of culture, science and technology and social progress.
Extended data
China culture, with Confucianism as the main body, is the only culture in ancient human culture that has never been interrupted and continues to this day. It covers a wide area, forming a vast and densely populated country. Before the mid-Ming Dynasty, the development level of economy, science and technology, culture and education in China was among the highest in the world, which promoted the development of world civilization in many aspects.
Confucian culture, represented by Confucius, can still spread abroad without relying on military force or government political background, and radiate to neighboring countries with great humanistic spirit-benevolence, kindness, harmony and moderation, forming a broad Confucian cultural circle. This fully shows that Confucius thought has had a great influence not only on Chinese civilization, but also on world culture.
