The original image was taken from Statista, of which an article written by a data journalist is wrong. https://www.statista.com/chart/3441/countries-never-invaded-by-britain/ For instance, Japan was never invited by Britain (although the British Empire declared war against imperial Japan in 1941). Japan was a coloniser itself in East Asia. https://www.encyclopedia.com/history/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/japan-colonized#:~:text=Japan%20was%20not%20formally%20colonized,colonialism%20in%20wide%2Dranging%20ways.
