The Fate of Switzerland

In 2016 Switzerland abolishes their army and are in fact the first country with no protection.
In 2018 Switzerland joins the EU as a full member.
Due to these decisions the rightwinged parties gained more voters than ever. The tension raises and before 2030 when the third world war starts, the army gets founded again. During the third world war Switzerland looses its neutrality in combat and attacks countries in the middle east.
After the third world war the EU kicks out Switzerland due major conflicts regarding army, the role of the EU in the world and trading. The EU also demanded to get cheap water from Switzerland, since the world population nearly reaches 10 billions and switzerland is one of those countries who have plenty of fresh water. A war between switzerland and the EU was inescapable.
In 2040 switzerland surrenders and the country gets devided into a french, italien and german part which goes to France, Italy and Germany. So Switzerland returns to EU, but not as Switzerland anymore.

Country Swallowing

This procedure – later called “country-swallowing” in the history books – is very common from 2040 to 2050 and so in 2050 the UCA, CAU, AC and EU are the only countries which are left besides Africa which never managed to catch up with the rest of the world and some south american countries which never had the chance to stand up for themselves since the UNO has been canceled.

The big 4

There are only a few big governments left: Unites Countries of America (UCA) the old USA, Canada, parts of Mexico and Kuba, European Union (EU) with some parts of North Africa and Australia (england put them under their crown), India with some countries of central asia (CAU central asia union) and the Asian Community (AC) which contains China, Japan, Vietnam, Laos, Taiwan and some other islands.
