Mohism almost entirely disappeared by the middle of which dynasty?
Western Han
Eastern Zhou
Northern Song
Eastern Jin
Answer
Western Han saw the decline of Mohism due to several factors, including the rise of Confucianism as the dominant ideology sponsored by the imperial court, the suppression of dissenting voices, and the lack of institutional support for Mohism. As a result, Mohism gradually lost its influence and was eventually overshadowed by other philosophical schools.
