Video: Have the British really invaded 90% of the countries in the world?

Did you know that the British have invaded 90% of the countries all the world that exist today at some point in their history? Amazing, right? Or is it...?

I look at the claim that Britain have invaded 90% of the countries in the world in more detail to find out to what extent this is really true.

The fact originates from a book entitled "All the countries we've ever invaded and the few we never got round to", released in 2012 by Stuart Laycock. Here's a link of you're interested: https://www.amazon.co.uk/All-Countries-Weve-Ever-Invaded/dp/0752479695 Even though the book quite a bit sensationalised, and I disagree with a lot of countries that have been "invaded", I still really enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone who has an interest in British history.
