A short but informative video highlighting the 3 main faiths in China - Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, and how different dynasties favoured different faiths. It's no surprise that politics sometimes played a part in this, but sometimes it was a matter of 'fashion'.
China's 3 faiths have also borrowed extensively from each other, even though Taoism was apparently a reaction to Confucianism while Buddhism was a fresh perspective, and a faith that started with philosophy before finding justification for its premises in the real world.
Enjoy!
