Britain imperialized vast territories across the globe, including significant regions in North America, the Caribbean, India, Australia, New Zealand, and parts of Africa, such as Egypt, South Africa, and Nigeria. The British Empire also extended to territories in Asia, like Hong Kong and Burma, as well as various islands in the Pacific and the Indian ocean.
