Describe the Confucian notion of an enlightened ruler

At the age of 50, Confucius was made Governor of the state of Lu and saw his opportunity to change China for the better. The teachings of Confucius are focused on two interrelated areas: Social Teachings, which deal with the proper behaviour of the individual in society and to his fellow men, and Political Teachings, which deal with the art of governance and the proper relationship of the Ruler to the ruled. He viewed education as central to achieving proper conduct both within Society and in Government. These rules were made to make China a more strong and powerful place.
