Oops!... I did it again. I invaded your space, more than just once. Oh baby, baby.



...I'm sorry

@elinbet at least you apologized

Give me 1 tank and 20 men and I'll go invade Liechtenstein

In Hetalia :
Switzerland: come on you liked it
(Liechtenstein embarrassed)
Liechtenstein: No I did not

Invade Liechtenstein did we? Oops ...I guess it is because they are almost Switzerland. They use our currency, they talk like we do... I mean some people call it the 27th kanton. We just didn't know it was not our land anymore.

When you're talking about such a tiny country as Liechtenstein, "invasion" might better be thought of as "trespass".

@Danelaw If you stick around, trespassing turns into an invasion. Or squatting, depending on the circumstances.

"Invasion" might be a bit of an exaggeration, but the general concept is true: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liechtenstein%E2%80%93Switzerland_relations

@Karen unsanctioned trespassing with a military force (even if just one person) is technically an invasion but that is just being anal about the term I guess

Oh dear . . . poor, small Liechtenstein that everyone forgets about . . .

No need to invade it! You can just rent it!

What in the Europe!?

@Baronese I’m going to make sure I say this on a daily basis.


(

can you actually accidentally invade a land? Germany year 2021: oops, I Think I accidentally invaded Poland, Europe.... It issen't that bad issen't it? Are you mad? Oh, god whait Britain! DON'T HURT ME IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!!!! I DIDDEN'T SE HIM! I'M NOT A NAZI I SWEAR PLEACEEEE!!!!

oh, god..... That's a new comic. Germany accidentally invades Poland again because he didden't se him, and then all the bigger countries are like: " I'M GONNA STOP YOU AGAIN!!!"

@EUcomicartist It's possible, I guess. A commanding officer misreads the maps or misunderstand orders, and moves his troops further than intended into neighboring territory.

@ZanarNaryon like, how the Europeans did with America?

Dont feel bad Switzerland. It was just a "Accident".

@Isokisu well, several times during the korean war and even vietnam, the US would accidentally cross ill-defined soviet borders, i believe in korea we actually accidentaly invaded china like 5 times, and had ONE general who actually tried to do it for real but was stopped

'@eldrek'
We never crossed the border into China during the Korean war, and it was actually mostly a fairly easy to follow border since it was largely defined by two rivers and a mountain. This was well known by the UN forces. Macarthur never intended to invade China (the general you mean) but he did essentially ignore orders not to push the North Korean troops all the way too the border. The plan was to defeat them and allow a buffer zone to exist between Korea and China, and if any troops were to go up to the border they could only be Korean troops.
Macarthur ignored this and pushed to the border, which did exactly what the UN leaders were worried it would....bring China full scale into the war. And they pushed us back to the old borders between the two Koreas at the start of the war. Leading to the stalemate of today.
There might not be a North Korea today if he had listened to orders.
I've read a little more on it, and the traditional view was that the Chinese thought they'd be invaded (and Manchuria over the border was an important industrial center), but recent scholarship thinks they knew they wouldn't be attacked....BUT did NOT like the idea of a US allied Korea bordering them. Perhaps fearing future invasion rather than present invasion. North Korea served Chinese interests as a buffer state....pretty much up until recently even. China now hates North Korea lol.

However you're right about Vietnam. And those were no accidents. The North Vietnamese forces were freely crossing the borders as well, helping a Communist revolution in Laos for instance. And the Americans also crossed and bombed Laos and Cambodia to stop North Vietnamese supply lines and troop movements and stuff. Which in their brutality helped undermine the Cambodian government at the time, accidentally helping the Khmer Rouge come to power....quite possibly the worst regime to ever exist. Worse than ISIS even.

@sagas Although China does seem to still hate the idea of a unified US-allied Korea more than they hate North Korea.

Switzerland: oops

(Is there a story behind Finland and his eye twitch here?)

@Maris I think he is there just because it is one of the few panels Switzerland actually is in.

@ApplesRock

He seems rather neutral about it

@Maris *laugh track plays*

@Maris
IIRC that was a comic where Aland and Sweden were trying to break in his house. Finland, presumably angrily (due to eye twitch) shot the key.

"Look, I got a gun in front of me, and a warmongering nation behind me. If you don't leave, I will attack first"
"But if you attack me, you will declare war on me and my entire country"
"Are you not listening to me? War, we monger it"

@ZanarNaryon I remember that video. Although I don't think this fits the situation seeing as it was an accidental invasion.

Is that the geographical version of fat-fingering, overstepping national boundaries?
