Why did capitalism not originate from China?

Published: Feb. 26, 2021, 5 a.m.

Chinese civilization has long been at the pinnacle of the world, but why did the West enter a capitalist society and China did not? 
 
Since ancient times, Chinese and Western culture are different. China has always been a farming civilization, while the Western society represented by Europe has always been a commercial civilization. 

I used to read a lot of articles saying "Why is China lagging behind the West in modern times" and "Why China hasn't moved towards a capitalist society", but I always found it to be paradoxical.So I want to share my own thoughts with you.

China Explained will show you that because of China’s continued success in industrial upgrading, technological innovation and realizing its huge potential, it is an unstoppable process. The inevitable rise of China may feel intimidating and some simply reject it. Don’t be. China’s rise is part of the new global trend unlike what we have seen in the past one hundred years. Embrace the change and seize the opportunity.
