This. The map just shows where China overtook the US, not whether China is number one in all of those countries. Depending on the region some of these countries may have a local regional power (e.g. Germany for many EU countries, perhaps Brazil for South America?) as their largest trading partner, but even in those cases the US and China will still likely be very highly placed.

Oh duh I can’t read. It says “larger”, not “largest”.
