Yes. But, Confucius was not the emperor of China. He was a teacher and philosopher and sometimes government official. His students revered him and his ideas became the intellectual foundation of Chinese culture. And Confucius was taught in China
Hanfeizi was very important. Legalism was based on his teachings. He lived from 280-233 B.C.E. He was a prince of the royal family of the state of Han. He got to see the end of the Warring States Period and the Zhou Dynasty Like Confucius. Hanfeizi was very concered with creating peace and order into a society, but he did not think Confucious teachings about proper behavior were the answer.

Laozi was a Chinese philosopher who created the idea of Daoism. Laozi thought that both Communism and Legalism were a little off with there ideas to re-create a better society, so he came up with the brilliant idea to combine them. From that, he got the philosophy of Daoism. It wasn't too strict, but it did have a few set rules/guidelines for the people of China to follow. It lasted for over 200 years, while Legalism lasted less than 50. Obviously, Laozi was on the right track.

Qin Shihuangdi
The emperor who based his rule on Legalism was Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China. He used Legalist principles to centralize power, enforce strict laws, and control his subjects through fear and punishment. His reign was characterized by authoritarian rule and stringent laws to maintain control over his empire.
The Chinese philosopher who developed Legalism was Han Feizi. His ideas focused on strict laws and harsh punishments to maintain order in society. Legalism contrasted with Confucianism and Daoism in its belief that people were inherently selfish and needed strong governance.

Legalism (Hundred Schools of Thought) began in China, in the fifth century BCE, about the same time as Confucianism and Daoism (or Taoism). Coincidentally, this was the same period as the flowering of new religious and philosophical ideas in the Near East and Greece. == == == ==
