For me, the difference between western and eastern philosophy is that western philosophy is broad and covers more about religion, science and other rationalistic thinking. On the other hand, eastern philosophy covers on wise teachings on how one should react or do in a particular environment or situation. One thing, western philosophers focus more on experimenting and researching in order to find other ways to answer their questions while eastern philosophy tend to use past experiences and wise teachings and are more conventional in finding ways in answering their questions.
Socrates is often considered the Father of Western Philosophy; however, most group him with his successors, Plato and Aristotle, as the Father's of Western Philosophy, also known as "The Big Three." One can argue that Thales is the true Founder of Western Philosophy due to his influence on Socrates. In regards to modern philosophy, René Descartes holds that title. There is no single person who owns the title of "The Father of Philosophy," considering how much of philosophy developed largely independently in different regions (i.e., Western and Eastern philosophy).
In Western Philosophy, it would be Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle.In Eastern Philosophy, it would be Confucius, Laozi, and Siddhārtha Gautama.
Confucian philosophy is eastern, Greek philosophy is western. Eastern philosophy doesn't think about the answers to questions about how the earth became like this. Confucius mainly thought about what was the best way to govern a state. He didn't think of practical problems.
Oriental philosophy, such as Confucianism and Taoism, tends to focus on harmony with nature, balance, and self-cultivation. Western philosophy, including traditions like rationalism and empiricism, places emphasis on logic, reason, and individualism. Overall, oriental philosophy often highlights interconnectedness and spiritual growth, while western philosophy often emphasizes critical thinking and scientific inquiry.
The philosophy of Moldavia, also known as Moldovan philosophy, is influenced by a blend of Eastern Orthodox Christian traditions, Western European philosophy, and regional cultural and historical factors. Themes often include existential questions, the nature of identity, and the relationship between the individual and society. Moldavian philosophers have explored topics such as ethics, metaphysics, and political philosophy within the context of their unique cultural background.

There are six differences between the Indian or Eastern and Western Philosophy. The main principles are that (a) the Indian philosophy believes that there is a cosmological unity where the western Philosophy believes that feeling oneself as an element of the Divine.
