Lord George Macartney should have kowtowed to Emperor Qian-long

Definition1/14
Lord Macartney compromised with the Chinese by offering the same
respect as he gave his own King, George III, the Chinese accepted
that offer, and historians should accept that compromise in the
spirit in which it was offered and accepted. This question by its
phrasing implies that Lord Macartney should have forgotten who he
represented, that is, King George III, and treated Emperor
Qian-long according to China's limited idea (at the time) of its
position in the world. King George III had a different idea of the
potential relationship between Great Britain and China from that of
Emperor Qian-long.
