<span>There were many similarities between the European Renaissance and the Chinese culture during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Some of the similarities include the centralized government both cultures had adapted.
Both the European Renaissance and the Ming and Qing dynasties experience a large cultural flowering.
Both cultures set out on journeys to explore the world via ships.
The motives for their centralized governments varied. China's centralized government focused on unity that encompassed almost their entire civilization. Europe had a divided system of many different and independent states but they all focused on Christendom.

History is a social science that studies past social and political events. As a discipline, it uses a methodology in order to study historical facts. Facts are objective for every Historian, but when Historians interpret the same facts often they arrive at different conclusions. That is because interpretation is highly subjective and the only way to interpret facts is through some specific perspective, a point of view or paradigm. When Historians interpret some period of History using a theoretical framework, they look at History like looking through glasses that enhance some factors in detriment of others. And that is inevitable when doing the historical interpretation.
Take, for example, Vladimir Lenin and the rise of the Soviet Union. According to Marxism, it was the forces of a social class, the workers, that rose against the imperial Russian state and the bourgeoisie that led to the creation of a Communist state. There are several historical documents that back this point of view. But according to Intentionalism, it was the powerful and attractive personality of Lenin and his talent for politics which led to the fall of the empire and the establishment of a new political system. Again, this is also very well-documented.
Of course, there can also be many other interpretations for this fact. For any historical event, there are many alternate interpretations, each of which looks at different -and many times contradicting- factors of History.
