They're like, look, we've had this Confucianism. We have these other philosophies but we need strong, super centralized rulers. And it ends up being that legalist philosophy that wins the day as you have the emergence of the Qin Dynasty in 221 and the Qin Dynasty is what modern China is named after and it's considered the first dynasty to really unify China in a very strong way and create its administrative and bureaucratic systems and it really is based on legalism and it was able to put an end to this Warring States period by putting so much power, central power, in strong rulers who are willing to be quite violent in repressing other people in order to bring that stability and it's notable that the emergence of the Qin is also considered the end of the 100 schools of thought because the Qin, as part of that order, started persecuting many of the other forms of philosophy including many of those that followed Confucius. Now other forms of philosophy, and this is just a sample that have strongly influenced China, you have Taoism. Taoism is, according to Taoist belief, comes from Lao Tzu and the historical record of Lao Tzu isn't as clear as we have for Confucius but it's believed that he lived around the same time. Some people view him as more of a legendary figure but Taoism is much more concerned with the spiritual than Confucianism. You see quotes, the Tao is really the way, it's all about harmony with the universe.
