one of the stories most amazing military What the European wars left us (not a little…) happened in a remote part of the Alps, in the Rhine Valley, precisely in a region that usually remains neutral in the event of a war. We are talking about the Principality of Liechtenstein, sixth smallest country in the world, but where forty thousand people live. In 1866, Liechtensteins went to fight in the Austro-Prussian War. Its mission was to defend the Brenner Pass, a strategic mountain pass between Italy and Austria. But it was relatively quiet work in a seven-week war. Legend has it that not only did the Liechtenstein army not lose a man in the war, 80 soldiers went to war… and 81 soldiers came back! How is this possible? In an apparently idyllic mountain setting, amongst beers and wines, to kill the guards’ time, an Austrian or Italian soldier joined them with the idea of ​​starting a new life in another country. Don’t tell me this isn’t an interesting story: you send 80 men to war and you send 81 back. I wish all wars were like this.
