The Despotate of the Morea in modern-day Greece was a part of the Byzantine Empire that held out longer than Constantinople (until 1460). So I answered Greece. I probably overthought that one.

The battle of Kohima was fought in India, therefore by definition Japan invaded Indian territory even if they did not get very far. It is however about 60kms inside India and the Japanese plan was definitely to invade India
