Neutral?Let’s debunk that
Switzerland is famous for its ‘armed neutrality’, a stance it has held since
1516 which means it doesn’t take part in military conflict. Don’t, however,
think it would be a pushover should you be considering an invasion. The
Swiss maintain a full-time army and airforce, and require all males between
18-34 to complete military service. Then there are the secret bunkers.
Hidden in mountains and also disguised in plain site as barns and cottages,
the structures house heavy artillery, guns, supplies and ammunition. There
are even rumours of a secret airforce base inside a mountain, which has
camouflaged doors that slide open to allow fighter planes to rocket out of.
