Try as I might, I'll never get Luxembourg!


I mean the founders were wandering around Europe and finally settled there and said "Ok this will be our country. Now measure one mile that way and one mile this other way and that will be our borders!"

WTF!

How do you get any tax base in a square mile!

And how do you defend yourself?! It would take only one Hitler-guy, or ANYBODY, to get a few guys and push you out of your own country! Then you're all refugees!

They're freaking lucky they're still around!

Like I said, I'll never get them.
