This era has made major breakthroughs in all major human civilizations. In Ancient India , Buddha Shakyamuni appeared, Jain Nobita appeared, Confucius , Laozi appeared in China, Greek appeared Socrates ,

in Palestine , today's Israel, all prophets appeared, that is, characters who later became Christian. In other words, genius people were born in every major area and group of people. Their appearance led to the emergence of some new theories, and these theories ultimately determined the direction of the national culture. For example, China has the theories of Confucius and Lao Tzu, and the West has the prophets and Socrates.

In the past, there was a very famous Austrian writer named Zweig . Many people have read his books. He has a famous saying, "Genius all appear in groups." We generally believe that genius appears alone. The appearance of genius gives people the impression of being lonely. But in fact, when viewed in the scope of all mankind, we will find that genius appears at the same time. The Axial Age is an era where genius appears concentratedly. Buddha is a representative figure born in the Indian civilization region of the Axial Age. Confucius and Lao Tzu are representatives of China in the Axial Age.
