surprisingly, i'm still searching for the "british invasion on brasil" to no success, what small battle did he pick?
I'm brazilian and english (well, human languages in general) aren't my best skill, so, sorry by my english. (if you want we can speak in C# or VB.Net =p)

Invaded is not exactly the correct term.
He included anytime when a British force spent time in a country, even if they had asked or paid to be there.
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

so he was just making a fuss
sometimes i forget how the marketing works. if we take this in account then brazilians have invaded every country out there. find a country without a single brazilian, i dare you.
we are a plague worse than bieber. (yes, i'm really pissed off with my country, if you want to know why, search for "Gustavo Lima" or "Michel Teló". DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for the damage that this search can cause your ears or brain.)

Now seriously: while this is true, I am not sure that France has ever been completely "Britsh" once. Parts of it (Britain!) for sure, but the whole country/kingdom ?

When Henry II married Eleanor of Aquitaine France was British.
His sons cocked it up though.

You can't call that an Invasion, more of we just 'turned up' and threatened to slap someone.

You can't have a go at the French when they aren't here to defend themselves... And we all know how good they are at defending themselves... 1914, 1940...

That's a decent todo list: I think we should go for Kyrgyzstan first. If only to rename it something more pronounceable like Anitdistinctlymintymonatarismonia.
[Edit]
And Sweden too, they're a bit too smug for my liking and need taking down a peg or two.

You haven't even tried yet.
There's a reason.
Start with France instead, you need to train on something easy first.

We've done France so many times, it's too easy.

With 9 1/2 million members it has a population bigger than a lot of Countries.

And yet smaller than some cities. Such terrible distribution of people

It may be that England has conquered Germany in the past (I don't know), but with our abysmal English, we will never stop destroying your language.

I thought that's what the Americans were doing (according to them anyways)?

Next question:
How many times throughout history have foreign military forces directed an attack on any territory which is (in the sense: was at the time of the attack) a recognized part of the territory of the United States of America?
