Establish background:

The spread of Confucius' theory to the west began more than 400 years ago, when Italian missionaries translated the Analects of Confucius, which recorded Confucius' words and deeds, into Latin and brought it to Europe.

Nowadays, Confucius' theory has gone to five continents, and the establishment of Confucius institutes in various countries is exactly the practice of Confucius' thoughts of "all men are brothers within the four seas", "harmony without difference" and "gentlemen take literature as their friends, and different people have different opinions".
