A special relationship?

I hate the craven way in which UK journalists bang on about our "Special Relationship" with the US after each high profile meeting between our respective high-ups. It would be nice if it were true that we are 'special' to them but as I understand it very many Americans below a certain age have no idea where we are in the world or even what language we speak. I can in part vouch for this since my American nephew once told me that when he mentioned his forthcoming visit to England one of his young friends asked him what language we speak
