    According to http://www.religioustolerance.org/confuciu.htm

    Confucianism was started by K'ung Fu Tzo, who was born in around 551 BC in Lu (modern day Shantung). He lived during the Chou Dynasty, one know for its moral laxity. Later in his life he wandered around giving advice to rulers, and gathering a small band of students. In the autumn of his years he returnded to Lu and completely devoted himself to teaching. His writings center around morality and ethics. Today there around 6 million Confucians in the world.
