So why did Brits have more than twice as many colonies than anyone

Because they can only expand in the sea being such a small island.

They are very good at micromanaging.

The bongs were the best pirates ever. Nobody did it better.

This map is not sufficient to show colonization. First you need a world map, second it needs to show the world in that era, third you need be already familiar with history, half of those countries did no exist in that form during the colonization.

To answer your question, I am going to assume that about half of the british "colonies" were 1 village islands in the middle of the ocean. Number of colonies doesn't mean shit by the way, landmass and resources are important.
