Barbarians, to China, were the less mentally endowed, of lesser understanding and of lesser quality than the Chinese people. This applied to all foreigners or all who came from other lands. This was not their fault, but they were not blessed to have the same intelligence and understanding as the Chinese had. Barbararians were given a chance if they would Kow Tow (bow all the way down with forehead touching the ground) and bring tribute to the emperor. When China was isolationist, before the Opium wars, they could maintain this view, however, when Britain got the upper hand this thinking began to deteriorate China as a great power in the world.
