      I'd vote for the Prince. But I'm only a warlord.

          Autserlitz and Jenna are oxymorons? since when?

          Question: was Liechtenstein ever considered for EU membership? Or are the microstates sort of ignored or left out caue they are mostly monarchies?

              I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

                From the Articel:

                ... and crime is so rare that there wasn't even a jail until 10 years ago.
                Uh, yes there is close to no crime at all in Lichtenstein... indeed ...

                ... Hum, you maybe find it a bit strange that there are more companys than people located in Lichtenstein ... but oh well thats just a normal coincidence, all perfectly legal and has no connection to any crime whatsoever ... honestly
                If its no fun why do it? Dance like noone is watching...

                  They're left out because some decisions need the aproval of ALL governments of EU members and no one wants to give so much power to micronations...
                  But beside that, I think the Liechtensteinians have voted for the Middle Ages instead of modern thinking and should be kept out of the EU even if they wanted to join and it wouldn't be too bad for power balance - what happens there is neo-absolutism, there is no real separation of power.

                    I think we need to organise a multi-national coalition and liberate the poor Liechensteinians from the oppressive rule of Prince Hans Adam as soon as possible. Tomorrow, maybe.

                      Why multinational? The Swiss could eat them alive nine times before they hit the ground.

                          Precisely. No-one likes a unilateralist.

                            Liechtenstein is nothing but a dissident province of Austria!
