Comparison of Chinese and western cultures

What are the main differences between Chinese and western cultures? I will list some differences:

West:

1. Western culture is based on individualism rather than mass (collectivism). For example, in America, you always talk about individual rights instead of putting the whole society above yourself. This is obviously different in China, where a country, a society and a family are put above themselves.

2. Western culture is based on adventure and exploration. Westerners like to discover new things, invent and expand outward. For example, bungee jumping is considered risky and common in western culture, but you may find that no one does such a thing in China.

3. Western culture is based on science, trying to solve the relationship between man and nature.

4. the west uses law to solve the relationship between people. In China, you will never find a deep-rooted "law". Since 2000, China has been a country based on interpersonal relationship rather than law.

5. The West uses "God" and religion to solve the relationship between man and idealism. If you have problems of your own, you can only pray to God.

6. The culture of outward expansion and development.

China culture:

1. Mass-based culture (collectivism). People put the country and family above individuals.

2. Humanism and people-oriented culture

3. In order to solve the relationship between man and nature, China people try to integrate man and nature.

4. China people use ethics and tolerance to solve the relationship between people.

5. In order to solve human and idealism, China emphasized internal culture (self-cultivation).

6. Pay attention to balance and meaning. "Mean" means "the middle way". You won't go to extremes. Peace is always respected.
