Important figures in Confucianism include Confucius (Kong Fuzi), the founder of the philosophy, who emphasized moral integrity, social harmony, and the importance of education. His disciples, such as Mencius (Mengzi) and Xunzi, further developed his ideas, with Mencius advocating for the innate goodness of human nature and Xunzi emphasizing the necessity of education and discipline. Additionally, later scholars like Zhu Xi played a crucial role in systematizing Confucian thought during the Song Dynasty.
