dragons, what do they stand for?

These imaginary creatures are arguably the most known fantasy animals in the world. But how they look and what they are different in the west and the east. So in today's blog, I will explain the different dragons.


First I will explain it in the eastern culture. This includes us. The dragons in eastern culture are basically gods. Not only do they control the weather but they even control wisdom. These dragons don't only stand for strength but also stand for wisdom. That is the reason why the king's clothes have dragons on them. Also, there is the biggest difference. Are they bad or good? In eastern culture, they mostly help people.


Then there is the western kind of dragons. It includes America and Europe. Also, they don't stand for good omen they stand for Bad omen. Unlike the eastern dragons, they also have more monstrous features and four legs. These dragons stand for greed, power, and destruction. Naturally, most western people don't look upon them. Also in almost all of the stories dragons always destroy villages and get slain by heroes. The image of dragons is not good in western culture. They are most feared among everything else.


These were the differences in the two directions of culture.
