It's cool how you can kind of see the British Empire based on what power sockets countries use. It's weird that China and Argentina are on there though.

Not possible given differences in electrical standards.

The way homes are wired in the UK requires that their plugs have internal fuses. Those are redundant in other countries with fuses at the panel or in some cases int he outlet, making them incompatible unless we changed how our houses were wired, or vice versa.
