10 June 2020 - why is Iceland pink?[edit]

I know UK invaded Iceland in 1940 to stop it being seized by Nazi Germany, but it was never governed by the British or considered an imperial posession. Why is it pink on the map? --Elmeter (talk) 19:37, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't. DuncanHill (talk) 23:34, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. It isn't now. It was fixed after my comment. See the revision log. --Elmeter (talk) 06:38, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Several missing territories[edit]

So, a lot of territories are missing, here is a list of them:

1: British Bencoolen, Bangka and Pakualaman (per above)

2: New Zealand and Australian antartic territories, they were part of their respective countries while they were british dominions, so, they should be included (see Australian Antarctic Territory and New Zealand Antarctic Territory).

3: Oregon Territory, it was under joint American-British occupation for some time, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, it was British until American independence (see Oregon Country and Saint_Pierre_and_Miquelon#History)

4: Anglo-Corsican kingdom (per discussions above), Guernsey/Jersey and Isle of Man, also change "Britain" to "United Kingdom" and add a arrow pointing from the name to Nothern Ireland.

5: Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet and Afghanistan (see Protectorate)

6: Tripolitania, Cyrenaica, Eritrea, Bioko and Somalia (see British Military Administration (Libya), British Military Administration (Somali), Italian_Eritrea#British_Military_Administration_and_the_end_of_the_colony and Bioko#History)

7: Label some islands like Norfolk, Niue, Tokelau, Heard and McDonald, Cocos and Cook islands, as well as Hawaii, as it was under occupation for a brief amount of time, and Manila (see Paulet affair and British occupation of Manila).

in addition, correct some things like the British North American territories, as well as Ellice islands and Iraq's names.
