What did the Chinese think the Europeans were?

The Chinese thought that the Europeans were barbarians who were worst than the Manchurians and the Mongolians who were also barbarians in the eyes of the Chinese. Europeans had to bow down to the Chinese when they wanted to trade with the Chinese. The Chinese however did not abuse their power on the Europeans because the Chinese saw themselves as the "Middle Kingdom" and believed that all other nations and people in the world will eventually adopt the Chinese ways. The Chinese don't shove their culture down other people's throats. I would say that the Chinese thinking was arrogance and vanity at its best.Source: Prelude to Opium War Qing DynastyThe Chinese thought that the Europeans were barbarians


What was John Lockes contribution to European history?

John Locke was a famous philosopher who believed that humans, when born, had a clear mental state. He said that humans changed because of their surroundings. He believed that government was only there to protect human's right to life, liberty, and property. He believed that government was an agreement between the ruler and the ruled, and if the ruler failed on his part of the bargin, the people had the right and responsibility to get rid of the ruler. His beliefs are commonly contrasted to those of Thomas Hobbes, who believed practically the opposite. He believed that humans were vile creatures, who needed a government, because without one, people would be living in a constant state of warfare. He believed that government was a contract between the people and the ruler for protection, and that if the people didn't like the ruler they were stuck with him, none the less. Hope this helps!
