I chose the Mohists and the Legalists, they are very different they had very different beliefs in the way that people acted and the structure of the laws. The Mohists believed people were bad and selfish but in order to be good the need to be educated in order to act the way that they feel is right, they also believed in love peace and no war, in this way they where very much like hippies. they belived that in order for there to be order every one should be smart, they however didn't feel a need for any music or art as they did not find this important to a peaceful environment. They also thought that all of china should become one country and have one ruler united by brotherly love. The Legalists where very much the opposite of these peaceful people.
the Legalists also believed that people were bad and selfish but in order to create peace you had to treat them as if they where bad and couldn't be good. †hey also believed that war was a symbol of power you could show how powerful a ruler was based on the wars that they won. they also believed people shouldn't question the law they should follow it blindly and the way they did this was to not educate the people. the Legalists where the opposite of the Mohists.
