Canada i don't think was ever conquered.

Mexico....
Didn't the US occupy Mexico back during the Mexican-American war? I suppose that could be considered conquered.

Indeed true, but will it still be true in 1,250 years time?

I don't think so. We took part of their country. That's not really "conquering" though.

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.

We conquered Mexico and then gave it back to them forcing them to sell us part of their territory? Lame conquest if it was one.

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?

That's no excuse. And yes, that would be great. Then we could drop this ridiculous sham of a drug war.
