The two nations are bound together by shared history, an overlap in religion and a common language and legal system, and kinship ties that reach back hundreds of years, including kindred, ancestral lines among English Americans, Scottish Americans, Welsh Americans, Scotch-Irish Americans and American Britons respectively. Today large numbers of expatriates live in both countries.
Through times of war and rebellion, peace and estrangement, as well as becoming friends and allies, Britain and the US cemented these deeply rooted links during World War II into what is known as the "Special Relationship." In long-term perspective, the historian Paul Johnson has called it the "cornerstone of the modern, democratic world order".
In the early 20th century, the United Kingdom affirmed its relationship with the United States as its "most important bilateral partnership" in the current British foreign policy,[2] and the American foreign policy also affirms its relationship with Britain as its most important relationship,as evidenced in aligned political affairs, mutual cooperation in the areas of trade, commerce, finance, technology, academics, as well as the arts and sciences; the sharing of government and military intelligence, and joint combat operations and peacekeeping missions carried out between the United States Armed Forces and the British Armed Forces. Canada has historically been the largest importer of U.S. goods and the principal exporter of goods to the United States. As of January 2015 the UK was fifth in terms of exports and seventh in terms of import of goods.
The two countries also have had a significant impact of the cultures of many other countries. They are the two main nodes of the Anglosphere, with a combined population of around 385 million in 2015. Together, they have given the English language a dominant role in many sectors of the modern world.

Answer:
Trade with China is an enormous privilege
Explanation:
The Emperor seems to do that because the European States will be in need of what China has, but he does state that it is a signal mark of <u>favour</u> (this word can be defined as: "an act of kindness beyond what is due or usual"). This shows that even though you might consider that the emperor is being kind, he also believes that he is conceiving a privilege to the westerns.
