In 1900, the British Empire controlled more territory than any other imperial nation, encompassing vast regions across Africa, Asia, the Americas, and the Pacific. This extensive empire was often referred to as "the empire on which the sun never sets" due to its global reach. Britain's dominance in trade, military power, and colonization during this period solidified its position as the leading imperial power.

The French had the largest quantity of land than any other single European nation. They controlled most of what is today Canada, and the territory known as the Louisiana territory which spread from the Mississippi river to the Rocky Mountains. Eventually the French would lose much of their Canadian territories to the British, and would sell the Louisiana territory to the Young Nation of the United States of America in the Louisiana purchase.
In a World War I context, but also true in most other contexts, 'imperial designs' is best defined as 'the intent of one nation to bring another nation under its administration and control.' The intention may not be malicious at root; however, it is in all cases a matter of seeking to gain control of another nation's natural resources, ports, trade-routes, territory, and sovereignty, and henceforth to manipulate these for the sake of one's own national enhancement and profit.

The best example would be Switzerland, because it was neutral and not allied to any other nation, and therefore not influenced by other nations. I don't think that the United States was controlled by any other nation, or that the USSR was controlled by any other nation, or that Nazi Germany was controlled by any other nation, however, they did have alliances which influenced them.
