Is there any records of what Native Americans, Chinese, Indians, Persians, Japanese etc thought of Europe? For example Did the Chinese know of Rome and Medieval Europe? What did Native Americans think of Europeans on first encounter?

>For example Did the Chinese know of Rome
Yes. Rome and the Eastern Roman Empire/Byzanties is called Daqin/Fulin.
>and Medieval Europe?
Chinese took the word of the Muslims and called everyone there "Folangqi." From the Arabic "Ferenggi," meaning "Franks." Byzantium is the limit of fucks China gave about Europe during medieval times.

>"[Roman] territory extends for several thousands of li. It has more than four hundred walled towns. There are several tens of smaller dependent kingdoms. The walls of the towns are made of stone. They have established postal relays at intervals, which are all plastered and whitewashed. There are pines and cypresses, as well as trees and plants of all kinds.
>Their kings are not permanent. They select and appoint the most worthy man. If there are unexpected calamities in the kingdom, such as frequent extraordinary winds or rains, he is unceremoniously rejected and replaced. The one who has been dismissed quietly accepts his demotion, and is not angry. The people of this country are all tall and honest. They resemble the people of the Middle Kingdom and that is why this kingdom is called Da Qin

Native Americans called Europeans early contacts "physically weak, sexually untrustworthy, atrociously ugly" and basically said "they smelled like shit" as well.
>>872086
Still so true.
>>872086
Pretty accurate.
>>872086
Look who's laughing now.
This motherfucker basically travelled all over the place and ended up as a Roman noble.
>>872018
>Rome
The common people are tall and virtuous like the Chinese, but wear hu (‘Western’) clothes. They say they originally came from China, but left it.

I think this is a misunderstanding of the Roman's own origin myth, which said they same from the east in Troy.

>what is something that doesn't have shit to do with what I said
Some Romans, or more likely some people who knew Roman myths, probably told the Chinese that their legends says that they came from the east (from Troy), but the Chinese probably misinterpreted it to mean they came from the east in China.

Shocker that blonde-haired mummies wearing clothes with Celtic designs are found in China.
Asia belongs to the white man.
>>874886
You mean mummies that existed thousands of years before Rome or the Celts and existed on the very western fringes of China? Fucking idiot.

There is no shitposting. Are you dumb enough to think white people are only limited to Europe?
>>875274
I'm white you fucking moron and I know very well that Tocharians were white. Answer the question, do you think white people only live in Europe? Fucking retard.
>>875267
Reread my post you were replying to, you illiterate. I said claiming ancient China was white because of Tocharians is like claiming Europe is Asian because of some Siberian settlers on the Kuban plain.

Heh... not bad, kid. Not bad at all. Your meme, I mean. It's not bad. A good first attempt. It's plenty dank... I can tell it's got some thought behind it... lots of quotable material...Non-European whites and all that...The blatant ignorance of the /int/-definition of white being the ruling factor... But memeing isn't all sunshine and rainbows, kid. You're skilled... that much I can tell. But do you have what it takes to be a Memester? To join those esteemed meme ranks? To call yourself a member of the Ruseman's Corps? Memeing takes talent, that much is true. But more than that it takes heart. The world-class Memesters - I mean the big guys, like Johnny Hammersticks and Billy Kuahana - they're out there day and night, burning the midnight meme-oil, working tirelessly to craft that next big meme. And you know what, kid? 99 times out of a hundred, that new meme fails. Someone dismisses it as bait, or says it's "tryhard," or ignores it as they copy/paste the latest shitpost copypasta dreamt up by those sorry excuses for cut-rate memers over at reddit. The Meme Game is rough, kid, and I don't just mean the one you just lost :). It's a rough business, and for every artisan meme you craft in your meme bakery, some cocksucker at 9gag has a picture of a duck or some shit that a million different Johnny No-Names will attach a milion different captions to. Chin up, kid. Don't get all mopey on me. You've got skill. You've got talent. You just need to show your drive.
See you on the boards...

The lives of people like this guy need to be taught way more. They show how the modern view of cultural isolation is way more complicated than we see it as.
