Not sure, but I think you can find information on this and any other faith at belief.net (go ogle for that one).

Confucianism' (Chinese: A; pinyin: R?ji?) is a Chinese ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucious (K?ng F?z?, or K'ung-FY-tzu, lit. "Master Kung", 551?479 BC). It focuses on human morality and right action. And it is a complex system of moral, social, political, philosophical, and quasi-religious thought that has had tremendous influence on the culture and history of East Asia. It might be considered a state religion of some East Asian countries, because of governmental promotion of Confucian values.

That is just he beginning of the information found on wiped.DOA
Also just put Confucianism into the search box of goggle and you will have many to choose from.

It's canonical scriptures are the Five Classics and the Four Books.
The Five Classics are ancient books that Confucius himself studied, including the Book of Songs, The Book of History, the Spring and Autumn Annals, The Book of Rituals, and the Book of Changes, known in the West by its Chinese name, the I Ching.
The Four Books are the Analects of Confucius himself, the Great Learning, the Doctrine of the Mean, and a book called Mencius which is a book written by Confucius' greatest successor (Mencius)
