The Indian sub-continent - what is now India, Pakistan, Kashmir, Sri Linka and Myanmar (Burma). Also Aden (now the southern part of Yemen), the Malay Peninsula, Singapore and Hong Kong were also under British rule. Kuwait was a British proctectorate. Attempts in 1838-41 and 1878-79 to add Afghanistan to British India were unsuccessful. After World War 1 British acquired Palestine and Iraq as League of Nation mandates.
