Top 10 Most Warmongering Countries

The United States has invaded more countries in the past fifty years than any other nation over the past two centuries. It is responsible for the overthrow of many regimes throughout its history, including the massacre and internment of its indigenous populations. Through the use of racist ideologies and invasions of neighboring Mexico, it greatly expanded its territory during the nineteenth century. Its invasion of Afghanistan and subsequent illegal invasion of Iraq in 2003 have resulted in regional instability and multiple insurgencies.

Israel has invaded and instigated many wars in less than a century of its existence. The illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine is a primary source of tensions and violence in the Middle East and Muslim world.

While North Korea has not physically invaded another nation apart from its southern counterpart during the Korean War, the Kim Jong-un regime has made many threats to other nations and has threatened the world with nuclear annihilation.

While the UK has played a relatively minor role in major conflicts in the past fifty years, during its imperial era it possessed the largest empire in world history, instigating many wars and rebellions against British rule.

Russia has perpetrated many invasions and wars throughout its history. The most recent include its war with Georgia, annexation of Eastern Ukraine and Crimea, and its involvement in the Syrian Civil War and War on Terror.

Riddled with filthy propaganda and 19th-century imperialism, it's like they live only to expand and annex territories in their path.

Although Uganda is not considered to be a powerful, developed nation, it has played a major role in exporting violence in the Sub-Sahara through its conflicts in the DR Congo and skirmishes with the LRA.

Turkey's involvement in the Syrian Civil War has drawn criticism both internally and externally. During the Ottoman era, the Turkish government invaded many countries across multiple continents, most notably southern Europe and the Persian empires. During its demise in the First World War, the Ottoman Turkish government committed mass atrocities and genocide against its Armenian and Greek civilians.

While the modern Republic of Germany has been reluctant to engage in war, the Nazi era still haunts millions to this day. Beginning in 1939, Chancellor Adolf Hitler invaded Poland, starting the deadliest conflict in human history. The Nazi government committed mass atrocities against Jews, Poles, and all other peoples deemed unfit by its racial Nuremberg laws. Its swastika emblem is now banned in Germany, despite being a symbol of peace in Eastern cultures.

Internal unrest, corruption, state-sponsored terrorism, and a seventy-year-old violent sectarian conflict with neighboring India have all led to the inclusion of Pakistan on this list.

Despite not having invaded another country since the Afsharid dynasty in the eighteenth century, the current Islamic regime in Iran is considered by many to be a threat to world peace. Its involvement in proxy conflicts with Israel, the United States, and Saudi Arabia has led to international sanctions and mistrust of one of the world's oldest and culturally richest countries. Its support and funding for Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine have been designated as state-sponsored terrorism by some countries.
