What's the difference between western feudal society and China feudal society?

The feudal society in the west is more than 500 years older than that in China. In our feudal era, they were primitive. Their feudal society ended faster than ours. When we were feudal, they had capital.

This is my personal opinion.

Geography: Western civilization originated from the marine civilization of ancient Greece and Rome. Surrounded by the sea, it is a small country with few people and easy to manage. So it is divided into many city-states divided by blood relationship. The origin of Chinese civilization and great river civilization, that is, the two rivers civilization (Yangtze River and Yellow River) has a vast territory and a large population. Difficult to manage.

Because the western city-states are sparsely populated and there are many people who need to attend the Senate, western countries have formed a relatively "democratic" system (which is found in history textbooks), while China has a vast territory, a large population and inconvenient management, so many local institutions that have been dominated by the central government have been formed, and the central government has issued orders to unify them. Formed centralization.

Humanities: As mentioned above, small western countries are vast in territory and sparsely populated (divided into different islands by the ocean) and lack of resources. Therefore, westerners learned to do business very early and exchanged olive oil for what they needed in other countries. The state also encourages people in this field. Westerners have long developed the spirit of adventure.

Let's look at China again. China has a vast territory and rich resources. Everything can be self-sufficient, forming a small-scale peasant economy for more than two thousand years. In order to maintain feudal rule, the central government has always implemented the policy of emphasizing agriculture and restraining commerce. The embryonic development of capitalism in China is slow.

As far as productivity is concerned, it should be productivity that determines the relations of production.

As for son preference, every country is the same.

That's all I know. Generally speaking, it depends on geography and humanities. Of course, there are other small factors.
