    Confucius has proved to be the greatest influence over the Chinese character. Besides being a great educationist, thinker and unsuccessful politician, he was first of all an intellect with a noble morality. He pursued truth, kindness and perfection throughout his life and his success and failure were largely due to his character, which had an everlasting impact on Chinese intellect.

    Confucianism means "The School of the Scholars"; or, less accurately, "The Religion of Confucius") is an East Asian ethical and philosophical system originally developed from the teachings of the early Chinese sage Confucius. It is a complex system of moral, social, political and religious which had tremendous influence on the history of Chinese civilization down to the 20th century.

    In Chinese history, Legalism (法家; literally "School of law") was one of the main philosophic currents during the Warring States Period (and before), although the term itself was invented in the Han dynasty and thus does not refer to an organized 'school' of thought.

    Confucius (551-479BC), or Kong Zi, was a thinker, political figure, educator, and founder of the Ru School (Confucian) of Chinese thought. His teachings, preserved in the Analects , form the foundation of much of subsequent Chinese speculation on education. Confucius' surname is Kong, his given name Qiu, and his social name Zhongni. This was a good website because it helped me understand who confucius was and it gave me some information on his achievements and Confucianism.

    Confucianism is a way of life taught by Confucius in the 6th-5th century BC. Sometimes viewed as a philosophy, sometimes as a religion, Confucianism is perhaps best understood as an all-encompassing humanism that neither denies nor slights Heaven. Confucianism has been followed by the Chinese for more than two millennia. (This site helped me with some of my Inquiry questions)

    These inventions impacted war in many ways, and one of them was the ground. Before cannons, there weren't any hole making weapons but when cannons came along the ground started getting big holes in it. When you fire a cannon ball and it hits the earth, it will explode, and when it explodes it will make a very big hole that will cause many things.

    Gunpowder or black powder is of great historical importance in chemistry. Although it can explode, its principal use is as a propellant. Gunpowder was invented by Chinese alchemists in the 9th century. Originally, it was made by mixing elemental sulfur, charcoal, and saltpeter (potassium nitrate).

    China is not the only country in history that has built a wall on its boundary. Athens, Rome, Denmark and Korea also did the same in the past. The Hadrian's Wall in Northern England was also built to separate the Romans from barbarians. All were built for the purpose of defending their country against its invaders.
