It is difficult to overstate the influence that Chinese culture had on its Asian neighbours. This influence was significant in many different areas, in particular, government, art, writing and philosophy.
- Chinese government was famous because of its bureaucratic efficiency. This was adopted by Korea and Japan in different amounts. Korea was home to Chinese military colonies during the Han dynasty, and the kingdom of Goguryeo was heavily influenced by the Chinese way of governing. In the case of Japan, one of the most significant contributions of China was the idea of "divine rule," which changed the role of the emperor.
- In terms of art, Korean and Japanese poetry were heavily influenced by the literary forms of China. Chinese architecture also left a significant mark in the architecture of Japan and Burma.
- Most Asia countries used the Chinese system of writing in order to write their own language. Eventually, they all changed slightly, with only Japanese retaining many Chinese characters in their writing system.
- Perhaps the greatest contribution of China to the culture of these countries is in the introduction of Buddhism and Confusianism. Japan introduced some native Japanese ideas to Buddhism in order to create Zen Buddhism. Burma, on the other hand, embraced Buddhism to such an extent that it now has the largest number of monks as a percentage of the general population of any country.

Tuchman regarding how the United States entered the World War I. This was written last April 1967 during the 50th anniversary of America entering the Great War.
