US: Behind every blade of grass... Switzerland: Naturally fortified Russia: It's about to get VERY cold. UK: Stiff upper lip. Afghanistan: The Graveyard of Empires. All of these lands have several advantages. From insane topography to a crap load of munitions. The US alone has like what? 6 different biomes in it's borders?
Afghans advantage is its overall climate and mountainous terrain, which can be invaded but not held for long, even then there isn’t much worth it there anyways.
The Iron Chancellor Bismarck himself said it best about America: “The Americans are a very lucky people. They’re bordered to the north and south by weak neighbors and to the east and west by fish.”
Canada may be considered weak but it's also one of the largest and most difficult terrain in the world with only one or possibly two major highways going across the country that are easily disabled. It would be almost impossible too try to take Canada for means of attacking the US. Also canadians records in war tend too terrify most adversaries they have alot of hunters and hold the record for the longest sniper kill.

One thing that people should realize about the US military is it's more of a logistics organization that dabbles in war fighting. Since WWII we know logistics better than anyone else. While the Germans and Japanese were worried about getting ANY food to their troops, we were worried about how to keep our ice cream cold longer.
More recently, in Iraq, some of our bases had Burger King. We literally took land in a country halfway across the planet and brought our fast food along with us.
Imagine a soldier surviving a failed attack in the Appalachia "There were people rising from the dirt and a guy wearing a deer head rushed one of us with a spoon"
It's happened a few times, including a bridge built IN THE EARLY 2000'S! The German contactor asked "Why, after nearly 60 years of peace don't you trust us?" The Swiss guys just said "The fact you're counting how many years you've been at peace is why we don't trust you". Burn!
Not to mention the US explicitly build the highway system to make it easier to move tanks across the country in the event of an invasion. Switzerland being so hard to invade over the centuries is especially impressive since it borders so many countries that were at war with each other.

@@ralphvelthuis2359that why we won 2 world wars, made it to the moon, AND built motor vehicles???? Stop me when someone else has done anything note worthy
Correction on US gun count. We have over 400,000,000 new gun sales since we started counting and doing background checks in 1996. We have no clue on how many guns were made and sold prior to 96. Serial numbers on domestic rifles and shotgun were not required until 1986. Based on gun manufacturer profit records divided by average cost of their weapons at the time estimates exceed 1 Billion. Then there are home made guns, a surprisingly popular hobby, there is no way to estimate the number of these weapons. We do know that many gun buyback programs go broke quickly after boxes of $15 home made guns are turned in for $300 Walmart gift cards, which then presumably are used to hit up hardware isles and make more guns as well as getting some groceries and ammo. A beautiful example of American cobra farming. Also 2/3s of Republicans admit to surveyors that they own at least one gun. All told the US civilian population owns more guns than the combined militaries and police of the earth. Yet has only a 0.003% higher homicide rate (3 per 100,000) compared to the UK.
@@George83_Thomas and we need more. 2/3 of conservative households admit to owning at least one gun. Many of us have basically family armories. It shouldn’t be surprising to those familiar with rural life. My town for example has no police except the odd statey rolling through our mostly desolate highway and a county Sheriff office that seldom has more than three deputies on duty (and one is on the radio) covering about a thousand square miles. If you call 911 you can expect 45 minutes to an hour response time. If someone meaning harm pulls off the highway or if a bear, moose, cougar of wolf pack is threatening us or livestock we are on our own and since the days of the pioneer and lone fur trapper we have preferred this self sufficient life style and been armed to the teeth with every kind of weapon available to meet any threat. When you drive through a small rural town you see people watching your unfamiliar car because we all watch out for ourselves and each other. The result is some of the safest areas on the map. My town for example has had two homicides in the last 120 years, both killers were stopped with armed townsfolk. One of these was a early 1900’s fight over a woman that was ended with a .45 bullet from the woman’s brother, the other was about five years ago when a crazy drug addled out of towner veered off the road into a random home and attacked the homeowner which was stopped by the homeowners wife with a “bear gun.” This armament makes small towns safe, quiet, and very polite.
Another problem with invading the US would be the time required to collect the men, material and supplies needed for such an invasion. Landing craft, transport ships and planes, men, armored vehicles, ammunition, food, water, etc are all necessary on Day 1. Anyone stockpiling such items, especially landing craft, would certainly be suspect. Unless we piss off Canada or Mexico.
You forget about our "friends" in Cuba. That would be the launching point with resupplies coming from Venezuela (and surrounding areas). There is a reason America purposefully keeps that area in Central America unstable.
@@JacobWillits Japan did send thousands of explosive balloons to the US during WW2, only single-digit number of people died. And for drone swarm, if that is actually a viable strategy, Russia would easily conquered Ukraine and China would've conquered Taiwan for now. Small drones have poor range, so you have to be able to deploy them relatively close to the frontline anyway. Plus, you literally could be spending tens of millions of an equivalent of 155 mm round a month, which is too heavy for cheap commercial drones to carry, and your chance at conquering a medium-sized country by the end of the year would still be unlikely. And no countries can produce an equivalent of 155 mm shell fast enough to sustain spending a few hundred thousands rounds a month, let alone tens of millions.
Something Abraham Lincoln said, "America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we lose our freedoms it will be because we have destroyed ourselves from within."
Yeah I live in a super liberal city, people get surprised when they realize that a lot of people here own firearms. I own over 30 different rifles, shotguns, and handguns and have probably close to 20,000 rounds of ammo in my closet.
When people think of a state with a lot of guns everyone thinks Texas, I live in Kentucky we have no permit laws here plus the only thing you need to own full auto gun is to pay the federal tax to get one. It only took me 2 hours to purchase my first gun and my second only took 5 minutes.

@@BenWilson-cp6ld if you bought modern guns from a gun store there is a number engraved on the firearm and that number is connected to you based on the purchase date... if you were to privately sell a firearm to someone else and they were to use it in a crime, it would come back to you. Just a warning. If all of your firearms were purchased via private sales then you are likely correct that there is no connection between you and the firearm. In fairness it isnt so much a registry as it is a purchase record that is maintained by the State.
The other thing of Britain is of course the highlands of Scotland will be difficult to traverse and along with the many canals that are in Britain choke points along bridges will become inevitable. Combine that with the maize of hedges and muddy lanes will make Britain hard to conquer even after crossing the channel which will have to be done in favorable sea conditions.
But an invasion to Britain would not need to cross these - the vast population of Scotland are in their cities, and Scotland is a small population compared to the the rest of the UK combined.

The thumbnail kinda sums it up, while the "a rifle behind every blade of grass" quote likely wasn't actually said by admiral Yamamoto, the sentiment behind it is still very much true.
He forgot to mention that of equal importance with the two oceans and an armed citizenry is our interstate highway system. The original name of the system was the Dwight D. Eisenhower System of Interstate and Defense Highways. The primary purpose of our highways is not civilian transportation and commerce. It was built to move armies. The system is meant both to repel invasion and to put down rebellion.
There's a common misinformation about admiral Isoroku Yamamoto saying the US is impossible to invade is because "A rifle behind every blade of grass." While Isoroku known full well that the US isn't possible to invade and even suggested to the higher-ups that they shouldn't do it, there's no evidence he said this quote. Alongside with the popular "I fear that I may have awaken a sleeping giant." Which is from a movie. The closest thing he ever said was "I shall run wild for 6 months to a year, victory after victory. After that, I have no expectation of success."

Honorable mention about Alaska. If anyone can recall. The Aleutian Islands had some taken over by the Japanese in World War 2.

I don’t think people realize how overpowered the US really is. Texas alone could take down most nations alone quite easily. Most people in Texas own guns and a good portion practice quite frequently. So good luck to anyone who tried to invade the US
As a Texan who has to deal with extreme storms and tornadoes every spring and brutal, potentially deadly heat every summer not to mention the hurricanes that can stampede through during both seasons... I can confirm that we are stubborn enough to fight mother nature herself. That scene of an American firing a hail of bullets at a tornado is accurate. The planet itself tries to kill us.

One thing that people should realize about the US military is it's more of a logistics organization that dabbles in war fighting. Since WWII we know logistics better than anyone else. While the Germans and Japanese were worried about getting ANY food to their troops, we were worried about how to keep our ice cream cold longer.
The Ice Cream Barge is my favorite ship type in the US fleet, no competition.
This is so painfully true. Thr Berlin Air drop during the cold war effectively won the war in the end.
I worked in logistics in the US army from 2006-2015
More recently, in Iraq, some of our bases had Burger King. We literally took land in a country halfway across the planet and brought our fast food along with us.
I mean, you lot DID join the war rather late, it's no wonder infrastructure would be in excellent shape

Correction on US gun count. We have over 400,000,000 new gun sales since we started counting and doing background checks in 1996.
We have no clue on how many guns were made and sold prior to 96.
Serial numbers on domestic rifles and shotgun were not required until 1986.
Based on gun manufacturer profit records divided by average cost of their weapons at the time estimates exceed 1 Billion. Then there are home made guns, a surprisingly popular hobby, there is no way to estimate the number of these weapons. We do know that many gun buyback programs go broke quickly after boxes of $15 home made guns are turned in for $300 Walmart gift cards, which then presumably are used to hit up hardware isles and make more guns as well as getting some groceries and ammo. A beautiful example of American cobra farming.
Also 2/3s of Republicans admit to surveyors that they own at least one gun.
All told the US civilian population owns more guns than the combined militaries and police of the earth. Yet has only a 0.003% higher homicide rate (3 per 100,000) compared to the UK.
God I love this country
All l can say is…
that’s a lot
@@George83_Thomas and we need more. 2/3 of conservative households admit to owning at least one gun. Many of us have basically family armories.
It shouldn’t be surprising to those familiar with rural life. My town for example has no police except the odd statey rolling through our mostly desolate highway and a county Sheriff office that seldom has more than three deputies on duty (and one is on the radio) covering about a thousand square miles. If you call 911 you can expect 45 minutes to an hour response time. If someone meaning harm pulls off the highway or if a bear, moose, cougar of wolf pack is threatening us or livestock we are on our own and since the days of the pioneer and lone fur trapper we have preferred this self sufficient life style and been armed to the teeth with every kind of weapon available to meet any threat.
When you drive through a small rural town you see people watching your unfamiliar car because we all watch out for ourselves and each other.
The result is some of the safest areas on the map. My town for example has had two homicides in the last 120 years, both killers were stopped with armed townsfolk. One of these was a early 1900’s fight over a woman that was ended with a .45 bullet from the woman’s brother, the other was about five years ago when a crazy drug addled out of towner veered off the road into a random home and attacked the homeowner which was stopped by the homeowners wife with a “bear gun.”
This armament makes small towns safe, quiet, and very polite.
Great point with that last sentence. Many politicians will have you believe that America is the murder capital of the world.
God bless America
As Isoroku Yamamoto said once about America: "A gun behind every blade of grass."
Another problem with invading the US would be the time required to collect the men, material and supplies needed for such an invasion. Landing craft, transport ships and planes, men, armored vehicles, ammunition, food, water, etc are all necessary on Day 1. Anyone stockpiling such items, especially landing craft, would certainly be suspect. Unless we piss off Canada or Mexico.
You act like they wouldnt just try to send an endless wave of balloons or drone swarms
You forget about our "friends" in Cuba. That would be the launching point with resupplies coming from Venezuela (and surrounding areas). There is a reason America purposefully keeps that area in Central America unstable.
@@peterwhitcomb8315 Not really. Again, we'd see any build up years in advance.
@@JacobWillits Japan did send thousands of explosive balloons to the US during WW2, only single-digit number of people died. And for drone swarm, if that is actually a viable strategy, Russia would easily conquered Ukraine and China would've conquered Taiwan for now. Small drones have poor range, so you have to be able to deploy them relatively close to the frontline anyway. Plus, you literally could be spending tens of millions of an equivalent of 155 mm round a month, which is too heavy for cheap commercial drones to carry, and your chance at conquering a medium-sized country by the end of the year would still be unlikely. And no countries can produce an equivalent of 155 mm shell fast enough to sustain spending a few hundred thousands rounds a month, let alone tens of millions.
American citizens own over 300,000,000 firearms. Almost every man woman and child could be used to fight an invasion force lol

The other thing of Britain is of course the highlands of Scotland will be difficult to traverse and along with the many canals that are in Britain choke points along bridges will become inevitable. Combine that with the maize of hedges and muddy lanes will make Britain hard to conquer even after crossing the channel which will have to be done in favorable sea conditions.
Also the border regions between England and Scotland. There was a reason that Border Reivers were a thing there for 4 centuries.
Great Britains civil defense is to put it mildly and politely well you know the thing.
The British cannot defend against riots. Why would you send in an army when all you have to do is wait a few decades and run the joint?
But an invasion to Britain would not need to cross these - the vast population of Scotland are in their cities, and Scotland is a small population compared to the the rest of the UK combined.
The Swiss sound like a nation of preppers.
Except the mountains and being able to buy their service rifle, that sounded pretty much like Finland. We even employ the same way of having bunkers in every new building of a certain size 😂
the geography in usa is beyond perfect for defense too. barrier mts on both east and west coast.
Impassable desert and the Rio Grande to the south, allied Canada to the north, the impenetrable Rocky Mountains in the west, and the eastern shield of Appalachia defending the heartland, with both coasts guarded by the most powerful navy the world has ever seen.

Whatever the invasion force is, would have to deal with that first before even thinking about making it to the US.
@@thiccchungo1041 even the Great Plains poses a risk to an invading army. Even though an invading army would be able to spread out across it, the problem is that the land is far in land that they are dead center wide open, and would be seen hundreds of miles away.
The thumbnail kinda sums it up, while the "a rifle behind every blade of grass" quote likely wasn't actually said by admiral Yamamoto, the sentiment behind it is still very much true.
He forgot to mention that of equal importance with the two oceans and an armed citizenry is our interstate highway system. The original name of the system was the Dwight D. Eisenhower System of Interstate and Defense Highways. The primary purpose of our highways is not civilian transportation and commerce. It was built to move armies. The system is meant both to repel invasion and to put down rebellion.
There's a common misinformation about admiral Isoroku Yamamoto saying the US is impossible to invade is because "A rifle behind every blade of grass."
While Isoroku known full well that the US isn't possible to invade and even suggested to the higher-ups that they shouldn't do it, there's no evidence he said this quote. Alongside with the popular "I fear that I may have awaken a sleeping giant." Which is from a movie.
The closest thing he ever said was "I shall run wild for 6 months to a year, victory after victory. After that, I have no expectation of success."
They didn't mention the numerous military bases that house divisions of military personnel that are stateside.
