China believe that they were a independent country so they didn't want to deal with other countries.

The White Man's Burned

For me "The White Man's Burden" means when people believe that they are more civilized and because of that they think that they can help other cultures to modernized and civilized them. One Great example is what is happening Between the U.S. and Irak. The U.S. is "trying" to help Irak, but they are really not doing nothing. I think that part of this of this poem is showing racism. I think that we still living "White Man's Burden" one hundred years later because as I said the U.S. want to change other country's government but they cannot do nothing.
