Early Chinese religious beliefs revolved around nature spirits, ancestral worship, and a pantheon of deities rather than a single god. Ancestor worship was significant, as it was believed that ancestors cared for their descendants. The dragon symbolized imperial power and was viewed positively but not as a singular god.
