Answer:

◇◇THE BRITISH EMPIRE◇◇

Step-by-step explanation:

The British Empire covered 13.01 million square miles of land - more than 22% of the earth's landmass.The empire had 458 million people in 1938 — more than 20% of the world's population.

The British Empire began with overseas colonies and trading posts and in the end comprised dominions, protectorates, and mandates, as well.

It was made up of 13 million square miles of land - more than 22% of the earth's land-mass. In 1922, the Empire had a population of 458 million people or about 20% the global population.

The financial burden of World War I was the beginning of the end for the British Empire.

Japan's occupation of its territories in the Second World War and the loss of India in 1947 brought the days of the British Empire to a close.
