Huang Qing Zhigong Tu ( Chinese: 皇清職貢圖; Collection of Portraits of Subordinate Peoples of the Qing Dynasty) is an 18th-century ethnological study of Chinese tributary states, including Western nations that traded with the Qing Empire. [1] [2] It was published around 1769. [2] The book identified peoples and countries by drawing attention to their national dresses, similarly to European costume books. [3]

The study contained numerous factual errors, such as reporting that France was a Buddhist state before becoming Catholic, that England and Sweden were vassals of Holland, and that France (Falanxi) and Portugal (Folangji) were the same country. [4]
