The British Invaded All but 22 Countries

[AWP]

An interesting map and story explaining it. Clearly, invading America for example doesn't mean that Redcoats tromped through Colorado or New Mexico, but it is an interesting list all the same.

A new study has found that at various times the British have invaded almost 90 per cent of the countries around the globe.
The analysis of the histories of the almost 200 countries in the world found only 22 which have never experienced an invasion by the British.
Among this select group of nations are far-off destinations such as Guatemala, Tajikistan and the Marshall Islands, as well some slightly closer to home, such as Luxembourg.

With all the poutine, you'd think we were in the lead but at least we aren't as bad at eating as the Irish. lol

Lets not forget that you also created your own ruling elite to replace the Royals hence really defeating the purpose of that whole nasty little rebellion in the first place.

LOL. I think policemedic may resemble, er, resent that remark.

Well, not loud. Sarcasm and spite are best doled out in quiet, disdainful tones.

All we got is the most beautiful country in the world that doesn't have all that many enemies and is difficult to invade.

I read the title and assumed QEII finally snapped and released the RMs. Figure 2-3 per country should do it.
