Are we counting Argentina? as it wasn't actually a country at the time we originally claimed the Falklands, iirc.

We invaded Argentina during the Napoleonic War & Russia in 1919.

I dont believe we have ever invaded Mongolia though.

We have invaded most of the countries in the Americas at some point, but I reckon Bolivia is landlocked so probably not them.

I'm surprised at Portugal, I thought they were one of the few nations we hadn't been to war with. I know we had a long alliance with them to keep a check on who was coming in and out of European waters and what the French were up to.

We invaded Portugal as part of the Peninsular War in 1807. (says Wikipedia)

I never thought I would ever have the opportunity on this forum to say that the dissertation for my BA was on the Elizabethan Army in the Netherlands. Thanks Pinto.

When the Empires divided up Africa, Congo went to Belgium, so they must be one.
