Have you been to Switzerland?
Take a look at the terrain you'll be fighting in. Then notice that the "army" is "everybody". Then look at how easy it is to go around the whole country instead.
There's a reason why everybody who's tried to take over Europe has decided to go around the spiky little neutral country in the middle. It's just good sense.
- philwelch 16y ago"Everybody" is an overstatement. Switzerland was overrun by the French during the French Revolutionary Wars and was more or less allied with Napoleon during the Napoleonic Wars. It wasn't until after the fall of Napoleon that Switzerland moved to their policy of armed neutrality, a policy which survived both World Wars.
