likes;;

• Saving money;;
  "Frugality is the highest of virtues." Switzerland is always looking for the cheapest prices and ways to save money. He's aware that his sources of income are extremely limited, so saving money is critical for him.
  
  
• Chocolate, Swiss cheese, and Watches;;
  All these things are part of his identity and he takes pride in his products.
  
  
• Liechtenstein;;
  Ever since Switzerland helped her out during the Great Depression, he's doted on her much like a older brother would his younger sibling. He takes care of many aspects of her life including representing her and her people's interests abroad and recognized her as a currency area while she still retained her currency sovereignty in principle, while she's the only person Switzerland has a soft spot for.
  
  
• Guns;;
  Being a fairly large weapons manufacturer, Switzerland has a good collection of them. He also finds them extremely useful when someone is violating his neutrality.
  
  
  

dislike;;

• His neutrality being violated;;
  He's a neutral country. He's not going to invade anyone else, so no one should invade him. He just wants to live in peace.
  
  
• Foreigners;;
  He doesn't want to interact with other countries, and he doesn't want to deal with their people either.
  
  
• Austria;; Though he'll deny it, Switzerland and Austria used to be friends. But, after Austria got a new boss, he started acting like Switzerland was one of his territories. Switzerland didn't want this, so he rebelled and became his own country. He still harbors ill feelings for Austria.
  
  
• Irritating people;;
  When Switzerland is in the presence of these people (which could range from people not doing their jobs, to indecisive people, to people who don't listen, to people who are generally bad-natured, people running around without pants just to name a few), they'll make him angry very easily, and his temper will show through.
  
  

strengths;;

• His strength
  [of his army]
  
  
• His frugality
  [towards money]
  
  
• The location of his house
  [in the alps making it difficult to invade]
  
  
• His neutrality
  [is a good keeper of the peace]
  
  
• His pin-point accurate marksmanship
  [ He was once a mercenary for the Vatican. ]
  
  

weakness;;

• His intimidating nature
  [to the point where people are scared to talk to him. ]
  
  
• Liechtenstein
  [If anyone hurt her, so help them God-]
  
  
• Memories
  [Memories that show up without permission can bring him from a somewhat pleasant mood to an angry fit in moments.]
  
  
• His temper
  [It just makes him a less pleasant person to be around.]
  
  

overall personality;;

Upon first meeting Switzerland, most will see that he is a loner. Because of his neutral status, he spends his days situated in the alps, staying out of most others affairs.

To people he doesn't know all that well or foreigners, Switzerland can be quite intimidating. His military strength is tremendous, he is one of the largest gun manufacturers in the world, not to mention, his banks hold much of the world's currency. He always speaks his mind, never holding back any opinions, and he expects others to do the same. His temper and sharp-shooting skills are forces to be reckoned with (at one time, he was hired as a mercenary for the Vatican). He is also stingy when it comes to money, and is always looking for ways to save a few bucks.

But, Switzerland isn't that cold all the time. He does care for those that might need help, and he will do whatever he can to help those countries less fortunate than he is. He can get considerably protective over the people that he cares for the most, and he would be willing to risk his safety and liberties for the people he's closest, too.

erase myself

hello my name is Swissy but if it's okay if you don't know my because I'm new here. Well if you think I don't know what's going on here then you are so wrong! Because I've read the plot and the rules and I can prove it too because the password is the sun never sets on the English empire. I'm going to wrap this up. If you have any other questions you can contact me by PM
