What would be the safest country if a Third World War happened?

Switzerland

It is probably the safest country in a Nuclear War or World War III event.

Here are 6 reasons for this:

  1. Natural Geography

On the southern border, Switzerland has the Swiss Alps.

To the north is surrounded by the Jura Mountains

It is close to impossible to cross these mountains without suffering several casualties due to the low temperatures of -20 ° C and rough terrain. Moreover, it is extremely difficult to mobilize an army through mountainous terrain.

  1. Switzerland is able to mobilize 200,000 soldiers and military personnel in a short period of 72 hours.

In a war event, the Swiss army manages to mobilize almost all its military and equipment for the Alpine region. In that region there are over 26,000 bunkers built by the country's military. Place that give them tactical advantage against attacks.

  1. In addition, every street, tunnel, bridge, and railroad in the country is designed to be demolished from a distance to make it impossible for intruders to use them.

If the invading forces could move the alpine region towards the plains, the Swiss army would blow up tunnels, points and other connection points to prevent its invasion.

  1. It is the only country in the world that has enough shelters for its entire population

  1. All houses in the country are required by law to build nuclear shelters

All homes that were made after 1978 are required by law to have a nuclear shelter capable of maintaining a complete family in the event of a 12-megaton nuclear explosion at a distance of more than 700 meters.

  1. There are 8.6 million of these shelters in Switzerland

This basically means that even in the event of a large immigration of refugees the country would be able to shelter everyone inside shelters.

Then the heads of state and generals would look at each other and say, "No thanks, we will invade someone easier."

It is said that in the case of a global nuclear war only the heads of states of some countries, cockroaches and more than 8.4 million Swiss citizens would survive.
