How does the isomorphism of home and country affect China culture?

The isomorphism between home and country is an important feature of ancient China society, and it is the product of the specific historical conditions in ancient China. On the other hand, the concept of "isomorphic state of home and country" has not only failed to promote the benign interaction between home and country, but has widened the distance between home and country and moved towards opposition. At the same time, it also combines filial piety and loyalty out of natural feelings, requiring subjects not only to make rational absolute obedience to the monarch, but also to make emotional patriarchal identification. This makes the "legitimacy" of its regime more secure. Finally, it had a series of influences on the development of China's traditional politics. Today, when democracy is advocated, it is of practical significance to clarify the old meaning and the concept.
