  1. What about coups instigated by foreign countries? Could you make list of that?

  2. TIL about the US/Polish/Argentinian occupation of Haiti in 1994-1995.

  3. I didn’t know it was a race. Argentina those are rookie numbers.

  4. Damn Israel is crushing it in the occupations per capita game!

  5. I assume this is about “exvasions”, not “invasions”?

  6. Is the Polish, accidental, one-week occupation of Czech shrine included?

  7. That for Israel can’t really be true as some of them are forced ?

  8. And they were blaming that Ukraine is going to invade them 😂 Ukraine, Ukraine with how much? 0? 😂

  9. The current place USA is occupying is the desolate part of Syria that has little economic value. And because its of no economic value, neighboring Governments don’t care about it. Therefore, ISIS grows there.

    USA is there to prevent ISIS from brewing up again.

  10. Why did you change the title to mean something different? In the first paragraph of the article, it specifies what an occupation is.

  11. English-language Wikipedia has a strong pro-US bias, so I wouldn’t trust this kind of lists.

    For instance, the US involvement in Vietnam was not considered a military occupation on that list. But the South Vietnam has been under military occupation of the North Vietnamese.

  12. Anyone with access to Wikipedia can tell that the US figure is nonsense.

  13. Dann. What do we Germans have to do to appear on such a list?

  14. USA only 7??? Those are rookie numbers…They have to pump it up.

  15. We all (rightfully) hate the Russian government for the 9, but act like the ones right below to it are cool.

  16. Lol, what a biased list. I imagine all the colonial wars like the French in Algeria or Cameroon were not an military occupation?

  17. No. Not invasions. You mean attacks, offensive actions, occupations and suchlike. The chart actually says so.

  18. Go back to WWII and you can almost double that number for Russia.

  19. u are misinterpreting what is clearly said to in the title and marked with green : military occupations. occupation is not invasion. the only way to make such a horrible mistake is intentional, to hide the fact that USA had incomparably more invasions (by definition: entering a country with armed force and no permission…occupation is when they stay), or this could be just a plain ignorance from your side. most of USA wars were invasions, since they have 19 giant aircraft carriers that serve that particular purpose. now check out any source about their wars since 1960 and look at that hefty number. im not saying russia good, USA bad, on the contrary, both of them are global threat, but trivializing fates of iraq, afganistan, lybia, vietnam and many others for the sake of weak argument is just bad.

  20. Gonna use this one when someone counters my support for Ukraine with “but Iraq…!”. Looks like we’re actually due *at least* 2 more invasions!

  21. russia is the most invasive country of the world. Picture me surprised!

  22. How do we count it when Arab countries attacked Israel, intending to occupy it? I guess they lost so they don’t make the list, and they got occupied in the process of losing.

  23. I don’t see France…..we control a large part of Africa thanks to our army and mercenaries.

  24. Russia is also killing the per capita occupations at one occupation per every 15.9 million people. But not as much as Israel or Armenia which take the first two spots with a rate of one occupation per 1.6 million and 930 thousand people respectively. The next three spots are occupied by Poland, Turkey and the United States.

  25. Another anti russian propaganda. Good job CIA agent.

  26. Israel has way more than six. Probably in the thousands.

  27. How does armenia have 3? Didnt we only have the karabakh war?

  28. Horrible poster, if goa is included then other portugese territories should be as well

    & If Kashmir is included then include pakistan & china

    All in all this is propaganda

  29. All of these countries should be removed from UN membership and only allowed an observer seat. Specially security council seat.

  30. The numbers seemed low.

    Edit: deleted part 2 of original comment as it does seem obvious. Preserved here so the replies makes sense. “does this include covert operations and regime changes ?” 

  31. Who has invaded the most countries in history?

    It would certainly be the British Empire. It was one of the biggest empires in history and it took control over large parts of the world.

    Sorry guys you all lose
