Island Empires, such as Great Britain, etc. have to survive on IMPORTS; other wise they starve. Such being the case, these Empires must strive for conquests, consequently they must "think more & invent more" in order to survive. Result=Colonies and Empire.
Colonies, which form an Empire create an extended fence which surround the "Homeland" or "Fatherland" (or "Motherland"); thus protecting it from potential enemies. As well as adding raw material wealth to the homeland.
Necessity is the Mother of Invention; and Island Empires have been forced by necessity to INVENT & EXPAND...into Empires.
