Answer:

Three competing belief systems (Confucianism, Daoism, and Legalism) came to prominence during the Warring States period of Chinese history. ... Legalism is a theory of autocratic, centralized rule and harsh penalties. These three philosophies influenced early Chinese empires; some even became official state ideologies.
