Religion/Culture of The Yuan


During the Yuan dynasty they believed that Daoism was a natural way to live. The Yuan people believed that every bad thing that happens, a good thing happens. They believed it was the way of the universe. Laws and social rules got in the way of living naturally, so the rulers rule less harshly. People aren’t forced to behave they know if they do something bad a bad thing will happen to them. It gives people a reason to behave. Confucianism is when people believed that everyone was good. Not everyone is good. During the Yuan dynasty it would be bad for Confucianism to be popular because people would get out of control and do something wrong. Daoism would be better because people would know that if they do something wrong they would be punished by the universe.
