The military history of the United Kingdom covers the period from the creation of the united Kingdom of Great Britain, with the political union of England and Scotland in 1707, to the present day. From the 18th century onwards, with the expansion of the British Empire and the country's industrial strength, the British military became one of the most powerful and technologically advanced militaries in Europe and the world. Its navy in particular, with major bases in four Imperial fortresses and coaling stations surrounding the globe, was without a doubt the world's greatest naval force from the 18th to the mid-20th century. British military declined in the mid-20th century as did those of the traditional European continental powers following the two world wars, decolonisation, and the rise

  • L’histoire militaire du Royaume-Uni couvre une période allant de la naissance du Royaume de Grande-Bretagne en 1707, avec l'Union de l'Angleterre et de l'Écosse, à aujourd'hui. Au XVIIIe siècle, avec l'expansion de l'Empire britannique, le pays est devenu le plus grand et le plus puissant au monde mais a décliné au XXe siècle à la suite des deux guerres mondiales, de la décolonisation et de l'émergence des superpuissances américaine et soviétique.
