<span>Confucianism is a set of philosophical beliefs in how to live that emphasizes family and social harmony. It is at its core humanistic and not spiritual. One of its core beliefs is that people are generally good and that they can be taught and improved through personal and communal endeavors. Basically, people should be willing to get along with each other with a minimum of conflict. With that in mind, let's look at the options.
A. To have a stable kingdom, rulers must be toughened warriors who rule absolutely.
* FALSE. This is in direct conflict with the precepts of Confucianism. Instead of getting along with each other, people have to be forced to act properly. So don't pick this.
B. Families set an example for all of china to follow.
* TRUE. Everyone is a member of an extended family and should be willing to deal with each other as they are.
C. Family obligations are important.
* TRUE. Obligations to others need to be fulfilled. And family obligations are the most important of all.
D. The key to good behavior and good government is concern for others.
* TRUE. If you're concerned about others more than yourself, then your actions will automatically be for the greater good of society.
E. Laws are the basis of an orderly society.
* FALSE. There should be no need to creating laws upon more laws if everyone is already working towards the greater good. Laws are more useful for indicating to people without a moral foundation as to actions they should or should not take. But if you have a solid moral foundation, laws are superfluous.</span>
Well, once the Americas were discovered and the colonist found that the soil was agreeable to grow different crops such as tobacco and cotton the colonists realized that they needed people to pick the crops. Originally indentured servants did the hard labor but then when they found that they could get labor by trading goods with African tribal leaders they resorted to importing Africans to the Americas as labor. The tribes in Africa were constantly fighting and whichever side won the losers became the slaves of the winning tribe. However, as Europeans brought valuable things to the continent of Africa such as weapons, salt, gold, and other things the leaders of the winning tribe would give their slaves to the Europeans. There were cases when Blacks captured other Blacks in Africa for the sole purpose of giving them to the European traders. Hopefully this helps. If you haven't see the movie La Amistad, it will explain in more detail what I have written. I learned a lot from that movie. I must warn you the first 5 to 10 minutes are a bit gory. I had a hard time watching that part.
