Chinese folktales have a long history, going back several thousand years. Periodically they have been revised, with emperors ordering the burning of old books and the printing of new ones more in fitting with the culture they were trying to impose. The main influences on Chinese folktales have been Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism.
