Switzerland

Three theories are considered in the scientific society:

1. Matrix theory
The Confederation in the 18th c. was in reality occupied by aliens who blocked all borders. Therefore no real information exists over the country and her poor inhabitants. The reason for the black hole on the campaign map. What you see in the books and internet is only fake spread by the aliens.

2. World domination theory
ETW needs balanced factions. The army of the united kantons of the Confederation, if depicted correctly, would have been so strong that no player would have had a chance against it. Huge problems for MP also.

3. Hollow way theory
A nearly deadly struggle among the CA devs about the Swiss special unit. The game director desired special commando crossbow and rope armed mountain troops (Tell Devils) but to avoid mutiny of the crew the whole Confederation was abandoned instead. The ropes and hooks idea however remained; they were given to all infantry for sieges.

Obviously, mind control is achieved through the cuckoo clocks :O

Seriously though, why? Come on CA, I doubt you've not seen this thread now.
