British military history is a long and varied topic, extending from the prehistoric and ancient historic period, through the Roman invasions of Julius Caesar and
Claudius and subsequent Roman occupation; warfare in the Mediaeval period, including the invasions of the
Saxons and the Vikings in the Dark Ages, the Norman
Conquest, and wars against France; through the Early Modern period, wars against Spain and France, and the English Civil War, and the
beginnings of the colonial British Empire in India, the USA and Canada; and
into the Modern period with the wars of Marlborough and against Napoleon, the Crimean War and into the
20th century with the Boer
War, World War I and World War II, the Korean War; and, most recently, the
Falklands War and military operations in the Balkans and the Middle East.
