"How did the view British?" is not a complete sentence, so it's difficult to understand what you're asking.
To help me answer your question, could you please rephrase it? For example:
* Who viewed the British in a certain way? (e.g., "How did the French view the British?")
* What was a common view of the British? (e.g., "How did people view the British during the Victorian era?")
* How did the view of the British change over time?
Once you provide more context, I can give you a more accurate and helpful answer.
