Spain's plan to invade China, for example, reflects an inadequate understanding of the situation in China. In every way--politics, the economy, science, and culture--China in the 16th century was on a par with Europe. In fact, it even surpassed Europe.
就拿侵略中國的計畫而言，即可看出西班牙對中國實際情況認識不夠，因為當時的中國，無論在政治、經濟、科技和文化各方面發展，其實都與歐洲不相上下，甚至有過之而無不及。
