China has had a "people-centered philosophy" for a very long time. In the prehistorical time, it was believed that a huge man named Pangu (not a god) created the universe. It was also believed that a woman named Nuwa created humans. Later, different generations have expressed the idea that "people are the foundation of a country." For example, there's a saying "国以民为本，社稷亦为民而立."
