They were all popular religions in china and still are. However Confucianism is not technically a religion.

Philosophies without having to worship deity, although they can if they want to. It's more of a way of life.

they are suppose to be religions of china, but now these days if you practice Buddhism there's a high possibility that you can be arrested by the Chinese government and put into labor camps. I am not making that up, I promise

I'm not sure, but:

1. Confucianism was started by a Chinese official.

2. Taoism is a mystical religion of yin-yang, from China.

3. Buddhism was founded by a former Indian prince (former, as meaning he left his royal home, and became a spiritual seeker).
