You've missed a few out. UK, obviously, Ireland, China, Spain (used to hold Menorca), France (Calais was held for a while), Nepal, South Sudan and I'm sure there were others that UK has held part of.

Oh thanks, I knew about the Nepal one but every map of the british raj showed that it was not a part. The China one I knew as well except I just forgot. And I did forget about Ireland so thank you. I will make sure to update the quiz. Have a good rest of your day.
