France and Britain have a long history of warfare.
Warfare and invasion are not the same thing.
There’s been a lot of occupation as well. E.g. the hundred year war.
If we can say Russia invaded Ukraine, England invaded France
You’re trying to be a pedant, yet you appear foolish.
Ignoring history and being pedant on the Internet are not the same thing. But you’re doing a good job at both.
Are you saying the British never sent troops into French territory? Any incursion by armed forces into another state’s territory is the very definition of invasion.
I think it would be easier to list the periods where France and Britain were NOT at war which each other rather than the opposite.
Amazing insight…
