War in the western world now happens less on the battlefields and more in the offices of our leaders. Trade sanctions, Aid sanctions, and financial sanctions are the tools of modern warfare, effectively stopping a battle before it starts. But sometimes this is not enough, and if a country wants to invade another, it will. However, here are 10 countries that have made this virtually impossible to do. 1. Canada. Canada shares its border with the USA and the majority of its population resides along this border, Canada and the USA have a Bilateral defense relationship which means that any invading force (that isn't the US) would be to either invade America first or to sail through frozen seas, land in remote areas, and hike down through mountainous terrain in sub-zero temperatures before reaching the city's on the border which by this time would probably be full of US troops. 2. Switzerland Probably the most Neutral of all the Neutral countries, If it wasn't for the famous Swiss Army Knife you probably wouldn't think that Switzerland even has an army. Even though the Swiss Army is highly trained and skilled, and fully accustomed to fighting in their alpine country, they aren't the main reason that Switzerland would be impossible to invade. Switzerland's neutrality is the reason, this neutrality means that all its bordering countries are strong allies with no interest in invading, thus any invading force would have to first take on, Germany, France, Austria, and Italy. 3. Japan. Japan has never been invaded, although multiple attempts have been made in its history, no one has succeeded. Nowadays it would be impossible. Japan's Airforce is the most technologically advanced and the fifth largest in the world, any invading force would have to arrive by sea and be bombarded throughout its approach. This would require a huge fleet of ships, aircraft, and aircraft carriers, something only the US military could achieve. 4. Bhutan This country is hidden away in the Himalayas and you've probably never even heard of it. It has a small army of just 16,000 men and yet it has never been invaded. it has one of the largest water reserves for Hydroelectric power in the world and sells its power to India. which is why the Indian army also protects Bhutan. 5. Israel. Israel has always been a country in dispute. In 69 years it's had 8 wars and hasn't lost one. They say "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger" and the Israeli have proven that! they have the world's best missile defense system, named "The Iron Dome", it uses Israeli missiles to shoot down enemy missiles before they reach their target. But Israel's biggest defense is its military. Every woman has to complete 2 years of military service and every man has to complete 3. 6.

Apart from long hauls through unforgiving desert, even the more populated routes can take longer to get to than you think. Don’t Surf Without Knowing the Etiquette Well, for example, the person closest to the peak of the break has the right to ride it. Don’t drop into another person’s wave. Paddle outside of the zone where a lineup of surfers might be coming at you. Secure your leg rope and don’t be a wave hog. Don’t Climb Uluru The views at the top of the rock are phenomenal, and it’s not a particularly difficult 348 meter climb. Even the 35 deaths from scaling the rock were mostly heart attacks. However, climbing this sacred, spiritual, monolith is considered offensive and disrespectful to the local Anangu people. So be respectful and skip the climb!

Traditions, customs, and Religious processions are common in many countries, and although they are completely normal to natives, to outsiders they can seem a little bit crazy. 1. Teeth. In the UK and the US, when a child loses a tooth, the Tooth fairy takes it away, replacing it with a gift, usually money. In Spain and France a similar thing happens but "The Tooth Fairy" is actually a mouse called "The Good Little Mouse" or "The Little Mouse Perez", in Jamaica, "The Tooth Fairy" is also a rodent, called "Ratta Ratta". In the Middle East, the tooth is thrown into the sky so the sun will grant the child a brighter smile with a new tooth. In Greece, they throw the tooth onto the roof for good luck, and in China, India, Korea, and Vietnam, only the lower teeth are thrown onto a roof for good luck, the upper teeth are placed on, or under the ground, so that the new tooth will grow straight and true. 2. Pomlazka. The Czechs have an odd custom that supposedly improves a woman's luck, fertility, and health for the upcoming year. Every Easter, young men braid whips from willow branches and tie ribbons on them, on Easter Monday, they go round the village whipping the girl's legs and buttocks and singing a song which roughly translates as. "Feast, Feast, give me a painted egg, if you don't have a painted one, give me a white one instead, and then the hen will bring you an egg again" 3. Kanamara festival In Japan, they also have a fertility custom. The Kanamara festival is held every year in spring at the Kanayama shrine in Kawasaki, Japan. Kanamara Matsuri translates as "Festival of the Steel Phallus" and every year there are processions with three different portable shrines: The Kanamara Boat Mikoshi, which is a roofed shrine on a boat with a shiny black steel penis inside, The Kanamara Mikoshi, which has a square base and a roof with a wooden penis inside, and The Elizabeth Mikoshi which is just a large pink penis tied to a platform. This fertility festival offers penis and vulva-shaped candy for you to suck on, Daikon Radishes to carve penises out of, and a whole range of genitalia-themed goods to buy, from keychains to candles. 4. Pushers. The Japanese people in general are very honorable, they avoid offending others and respect each other's personal space. However, Japan's Subway system, like every subway system in the world, is crowded and, left to their own devices, the Japanese would respect each other's personal space and the trains would leave half empty. This would make the system impunctual and inefficient. To overcome this problem the subway system employs people they call "Pushers", their job, is to guide, push, and jam as many people into the trains as possible, increasing the number of passengers on each train and improving the system's efficiency. 5. Falaka. Falaka is a light-hearted tradition from South Korea. During a wedding, the friends and family of the groom will make him lie down on the floor or on a table and take his shoes and socks off. Next, they take it in turns to beat the soles of his feet with dried fish whilst someone asks him questions. This custom is supposed to prove that he is worthy to take his bride home with him and strong enough to endure the night ahead of them. 6. Año Nuevo. In Spain, it is customary to welcome the New year by wearing red underwear for luck. At midnight, as the clock chimes, they try to eat one grape per chime, that's 12 grapes in twelve seconds, and those that achieve this will have good health. After eating the grapes they then make a toast, putting something made of gold into their glass of cava to ensure prosperity in the following year. 7. La Batalla del Vino. Spain is also known for its San Fermin bull running festival and for its "Tomatina" tomato fight fiesta, but a festival you may not have heard of is La Batalla del Vino. Taking place on the 29th of June in Haro, La Rioja. After days of festivities, over 10,000 people dressed in white, participate in the "wine battle". More than 100,000 liters of red wine are fired from hoses, buckets, crop sprayers, and water pistols until everyone's clothes are purple. 8. Procreation Day. In Russia, the 12th of September is a National holiday called Conception Day. In 2005, in an effort to increase Russia's alarmingly low birth rate, the government invented Conception Day. The general public is given time off work in order to go home and procreate, anyone who has their baby exactly 9 months after on the 12th of June enters a draw where they can win anything from a washing machine to a SUV.
