Chinese dragon which is also known as East Asian dragon or Long, are legendary creatures in Chinese mythology, Chinese folklore, and East Asian culture at large. Chinese dragons have many animal-like resemblances such as turtles and fish, but are most commonly depicted as snake-like with four legs. They are believed to symbolize prospective and auspicious powers such as control over water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. The dragon can be believed as signalling power, strength, and good luck for people who are worthy of it in East Asian culture. During the days of Imperial China, the Emperor of China usually used the dragon as a reflection of his imperial strength and power. In Chinese culture, ace and out of the box people are compared to a dragon, while liability people with no achievements are compared to other, disesteemed creatures, such as a worm. A number of Chinese proverbs and idioms feature dragon, such as "Hoping one's son will become a dragon" Historically, the Chinese dragon was attached with the Emperor of China and used a symbol to represent imperial power. The founder of Han dynasty Liu Bang also claimed that he was conceived after his mother dreamt of a dragon. It was prevalent in Tang dynasty that Emperors wore robes with dragon motif as an imperial symbol and high officials were also presented with dragon robes.
