Chapter 5: Eurasion Cultural Traditions

Every culture has it's own traditions that differs from other cultures.  These beliefs and values have been around for thousands of years and are still around today.  In China there was the teachings of Kong Fuzi (Confucius) and Laozi which brought up the ideas of Confucianism and Daoism.  While in India there was the teachings of Hinduism which had many Gods and Godesses.  Later Buddishm, which included peace and spirtual quests, would be introduced by a guy named Siddhartha Gautama.  Then there is the Middle East where a Persain named Zarathustra taught monotheistic religious traditions which would eventually be recognized as Zoroastrianism.  The Greeks were more focused on traditional forms of writings like: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, etc.  It is very evident that these cultures had different ideas and beliefs, yet some are very similar.  Take cultures like China and Greece, they focused more on the world affairs like writings and social sturcture.  While cultures like India and Persia focused more on Religion.  Even though some traditions have died out, some are still used til this day.
