Faux invasion

What began as a routine training exercise almost ended as an invasion! Switzerland is in an embarrassing diplomatic quagmire after a company of Swiss soldiers got lost at night and marched into neighboring Liechtenstein.

The 170 soldiers wandered over a mile into the tiny principality before realizing their mistake and turning back. Liechtenstein, which has about 34,000 inhabitants, does not have an army.
