The Swiss are a pretty scary bunch from a military standpoint. Real big belivers in Pro Pace Para Bellum. All major tunnels/bridges in/out of the country are pre-bracketed to accept charges to cut them, along with tanktraps in place to pin whoever might get past. There are artillery units that are dispersed throughout the countryside, hidden in the hillsides, and ready to deploy. Underground airbases, airbases cut into the sides of mountains. Yeah - they're small - but I wouldn't want to be the country that tried to take them on. They would bleed you to death.
Thanks for the info. I had no idea, and I'm glad to hear it.
Plus they have universal conscription -- every 18 year old gets drafted and trained. The entire adult population in Switzerland knows how to effectively handle weapons.
Yep, by promising anybody who violated her borders a big old dose of headache Switzerland was able to avoid the destruction that the rest of Europe endured...twice. Militarily speaking Switzerland is to the world what a porcupine is to the animal kingdom.
