East Pakistan was conquered by Indian Army back in 1971. @levina


Greenland has been colonized by Norwegians and Danish people in the past and present.

I read that Nepal could be considered for this title as it has only been a Vassal state during Gupta empire and been under the influence of Britishers, but was never conquered.

Getting attacked or going to war against another country is not being colonized.. These are two different things

"Colonization (or colonisation) occurs whenever there is a large-scale migration of any one or more groups of people to a colonial area. The migrants, who can also be called colonizers, keep "strong links" with their previous country, and thus obtain tremendous "privileges" over other people living in the area being colonized"

Japan was attacked by the Allies and Thailand allowed Japanese troops through it's territory to Burma and British India, Under a agreement, Japanese never colonized Siam

P.S: What does "Kya bola re" mean ?

Depends on the definition of conquer/colonise i guess.
Persia was conquered by Alexander and ruled by his satraps for a while.
Japan surrendered in WWII and Allied forces stationed there.
Denmark was occupied by Nazi Germany, but they did not put up much of a fight.

There will be a lot many countries if the criteria is "has never been colonized". "Has never been successfully invaded" - is more fun.

Well.. This tread is specific about those countries that was never colonized or occupied.. So sticking to the subject is more pertinent
