In "Gulliver's Travels," the King of Brobdingnag reacts with Horror and disdain to Gulliver's account of European customs and history. He finds the practices of war, politics, and the treatment of the poor appalling, declaring that such behaviors are indicative of a corrupt society. The King contrasts the moral integrity of his own people with the violent and flawed nature of European civilization, ultimately expressing disbelief that humans can possess such barbarity. His response highlights the satirical critique of European norms and values inherent in Swift's work.
