There is no out and out best thing for any country really, but im Scottish and proud of the massive number of accomplishments we have achieved alone and as part of the UK.

However on a personal note I feel that the way our culture is regarded around the world is one of our best achivements. I have only had good experiences abroad when its been revealed that i'm Scottish.

Australia: Refrigeration, you gotta keep lager cool during fermentation. Howard Florey. The Bionic Ear. The ultrasound. The box of wine. Kokoda. Won WW1 for the allies. Gave a tonne of New Zealanders a break in the entertainment industry. Sorry about Germaine, Clive, and Rupert. Very sorry about Rupert.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_empires

1.British Empire - 33.7 million km2 (1922)
2.Mongol Empire - 33.0 million km2 (1270 or 1309)

Also lets not forget that the British empire included naval dominance.

U.S. - First on the Moon, which by your logic, means we own it.

Scotland's claim to fame would probably involve stealing the TV from Tesla (I think) before he patented it, or having the striking ability as a nation to hate everyone equally, and being generally polite about it if you can get past our genetic Tourette's Syndrome.

WE KICK ASS!

Among other things.
And Why is it that (as far as I can tell) Americans think they're the only people to participate in D-Day.
Doesn't make sense to me either.
Americans - 2 beaches. UK & Canada - 3 beaches. Get. Over. It.

(and you'd have thought after turning up late for the first world war you wouldn't make the same mistake.)

And if you're going to try to start an empire you could at least have the decency to tell people you're conquering them instead of pretending that you're doing it for their benefit. "Liberating the people of Iraq" - ridiculous.

I'd like to highlight English contributions to world sport:

Football
Cricket
Rugby
Golf
Hockey
Rounders
Baseball
Badminton
Tennis
Table Tennis
Snooker
Bunjee Jumping
Bobsleigh
Darts

Go Australia's pussy attitude :p hahaha

oh wait...No....We were forced to join in Americas shenanigans...Nevermind.

Nothing really.
your forgetting all the Australian inventions, e.g:
- pre-paid postage (1838)
- refrigerator (1856)
- first feature film (The Story of the Kelly Gang - 1906)
- electronic pacemaker (1928)
- rotary clothes line (1948)
- atomic absorption spectrophotometer (1952)
- ultrasound (1961)
- and Hugh Jackman (1968)

we may not kill as many people as other countries, but we make their lives easier

U.S. here.

I believe airplanes and air travel is the biggest one I can think of.

Also basically beating back the Japanese in WW2. Granted as we got closer to Japan we started getting help from Australia/New Zealand/Soviet Union/and whatever British forces were there after they pushed them back from India.
