Even though UK released it's colonies in legal and peaceful ways on the whole.

Islas Malvinas

France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany etc get let off.

Don't worry, they are also remembered

So I was going to fact check myself before I responded. But I thought it'd be more interesting to be wrong on what I think I know.

Faulkands were never occupied by Argentina. They were claimed for France and then removed by the British. It's been British ever since and I think the few occupants want to remain British.
