Otherwise, good quiz!
It's often claimed that Britain invaded all but 22 countries; however, that's not true. Volunteers who were British citizens don't count, aiding allies in defending themselves doesn't count, private individuals taking land doesn't count, and controlling territory without attacking it doesn't count for your quiz. That rules out Latvia, Estonia, Croatia, Peru, Belgium, Poland, Vietnam, Malta, Mozambique, Norway, Fiji and probably Chile, Albania, Venezuela, Namibia, Luxembourg, Spain and Portugal too. How about countries that were colonised but not attacked? (Southern Africa and Australia.)
