This episode claims British troops landed in India in 1858 as a result of the US War of Independence. In reality British troops had already been in India for at least 100 years by that date (including forces of the East India Company).1858 is the year Britain established the British Raj in India, ruling until Indian independence in 1947, just following WW2. Independence partially granted due to India's huge contribution to the allies during WW1 & WW2. It is from this era that the highly regarded Ghurka regiment was established consisting of Nepalese soldiers serving in the British army - and continues to this day.

The British was also responsible for Diego Silang's death after they promised him military assistance to support his revolt against Spain, which never happened. This also led to the death of Diego's wife, Gabriela Silang after she took the mantle of leadership after Diego's execution. The Brits invaded the Philippines after Spain decided to side with France during the Seven Years' War.

Fail, it's because of engineering and clever tactics, you sound kinda bitter "piracy" lol that's a dumb and obvious answer.

I dare say that if by "invasion" we mean actually carrying out an armed invasion of the place (whether or not it leads to a capture of the territory in question) rather than just stepping foot there or having more indirect influence or some other loose definition, then Great Britain invaded well under 90% of the world's present-day countries.

I think there is something to the genetic make up of the British people, at least the people in this time period. Thinking about the attributes of Celts, Romans, Saxons (et al) vikings and Normans. I know the Normans were basically Vikings too but they were different due to organisation, logistics and resource. So, in the genetic make up you could argue efficient empire building, seafaring exploration and warfare are well coded and possibly amplified by being an island nation.

Hey infographicshow, why is Ireland included as part of England in the thumbnail?

I wouldn't include Bolivia & Paraguay in list because both were part of Spain's Rio de la Plata colony that British TWICE tried to conquer in 1806 & 1807, from Cape colony, newly conquered from Dutch.

I am English by birth. England is part of Great Britain. You spring from England to Britain in the same paragraph. This will confuse some and upset others.

Got to correct this as it confuses England and Britain- England does NOT equal Britain. They are not the same thing. Britain is the island that contains 3 nations. England is one of those nations. England is not an island, its part of an island. The UK is Britain plus a 4th nation on the island of Ireland called Northern Ireland. These 4 nations are united to form one country we call the UK. Confusing these terms is like calling the USA California or calling Asia China.

Britain, in the form of a privateering/filibustering mission, tried to invade Argentina (specifically Buenos Aires) in 1806 and was defeated, then on a more professional armed basis Britain captured Uruguay (specifically Montevideo) in February 1807, and then later in 1807 Britain tried once more to invade Argentina (again, specifically Buenos Aires) and was defeated. It was after that last defeat that Britain withdrew from both Buenos Aires and Montevideo.

It’s interesting to realize that the first British colony was Ireland in the 1600s (with the exception of the 13 colonies) it was also the first country to eject the British. While occupied Ireland provided up to 1/3 of the sailors of the royal navy and numerous famous ‘british’ generals were born in Ireland. Ireland gained its independence in 1921 and within 30 years of Ireland driving the British out and gaining independence the British empire disintegrated….🤔
