Religion and Culture

            The main belief system that was used during The Zhou Dynasty was Confucianism. Confucianism was used during The Zhou Dynasty form it’s beginning in 1045 B.C. and until the end of the Zhou Dynast in 250 B.C. Confucianism was invented by Confucius, who believed that leaders should not force there to jobs, instead encourage people to. This belief system lasted through both the Eastern, and Western Zhou’s, which just says how efficient it is for a Dynasty. Confucian beliefs led to the citizens of China to not be forced to produce a certain amount of crops, instead they were told just to produce as much as they could. The students of China studied the teachings of Confucius, so that they know how to fit into the society. Confucianism must have been very successful, if it lasted through all of the Zhou Dynasty.
