Canada i don't think was ever conquered. Didn't the US occupy Mexico back during the Mexican-American war? I suppose that could be considered conquered.

The US marched in and overthrew the Mexican government. And at other times took over part of it's territory... Texas.
Australia has never hosted a land battle. The Japanese sent in some bombers, and lobbed a few shells from submarines but no troops.

Has Mongolia actually ever been conquered. I know it was under the sway of the Soviets, but have they actually been occupied and subjugated...it doesn't come to mind?
