The British Empire emerged in the 16th century as England began conquering territories to expand its power and influence. At its peak, the Empire spanned Canada, the Caribbean, East Coast of America, Australia, India, South Africa and other countries. However, after World War 2, most territories gained independence and the Empire dissolved as England lost administrative control over places like Australia, Canada and Egypt.
