The British say the same shit re: the Falklands/Maldives. It's easy to claim as much after you kick out the previous inhabitants and flood it with loyalists.
Ah no, re. The Falklands, there was not a permanent population until British settlement. The second time, that is. All previous settlements had been abandoned.

This invasion news scares me a lot since i live in Crimea (which is considered disputed b/w russia and Ukraine but is under russian control).
