Kuwait was never colonized.

However, Kuwait was a protectorate (which is an independent government that chooses to have Another Country manage defense and other external matters) of the United Kingdom from 1899-1961. Kuwait became a British Protectorate in order to avoid being conquered by the Ottoman Empire.

Who invaded Kuwait in 1900 and why How did the world react to this invasion?

Nobody invaded Kuwait in 1900. In 1899, the Emir of Kuwait sought British protection against the Ottomans and s Kuwait became a British protectorate. British soldiers moved into the country, but, since they were doing it with the Kuwaiti Emir's permission, it was not an invasion. If the question intended to ask about the invasion of Kuwait in 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait at that time and the international reaction was to create a UN force to liberate Kuwait from Iraqi Occupation.

How did Kuwait ended in WW1?

Kuwait's involvement in World War I was primarily influenced by its strategic position and its relationship with the British Empire. During the war, Kuwait was under British protectorate status, and British forces used the territory as a base for operations against the Ottoman Empire, which controlled much of the Middle East at the time. After the war, the defeat of the Ottomans led to the establishment of new political boundaries and increased British influence in the region, solidifying Kuwait's status as a British protectorate until its independence. Thus, Kuwait's role in WWI was largely shaped by its alliance with Britain rather than direct military engagement.
