Coming October 2015! Italians Invaded Liechtenstein |
"When the Romans arrived in the area of what is now Liechtenstein, they found a people called the Raeti living there. Now, it is possible that the Raeti were the first invaders of Liechtenstein with Italian links, since Pliny describes them as being originally Etruscans driven into the area by Gallic pressure. Modern archaeology has suggested links between parts of Raetia and Etruria, though in the farther northern areas of Raetia, these may have been restricted more to trade links and cultural influence.

Roman rule did not bring total security to the area. For instance, the Marcomanni swept into Raetia, causing havoc in the second century AD; and in the third and fourth centuries, the Alamanni would repeatedly invade the area. The Romans would constantly clash with them and try to expel them, but in the end, the Alamanni would settle the entire area in the fifth century.
At various times after that, soldiers with Italian connections did enter Liechtenstein. Italian-speaking parts of Switzerland border Liechtenstein to the south. In 1499, at the Battle of Triesen, the forces of the Three Leagues, an entity including some Italian-Swiss regions, were among those that defeating the troops of the Hapsburgs and the Swabian League.

The army of Liechtenstein was abolished in 1868. It’s worth pointing, however, out that on some slightly bizarre level, Liechtenstein can claim to be the last extant bit of the Holy Roman Empire. The prince of Liechtenstein and his successors were made princes of the Holy Roman Empire, and while the empire is gone, they live on." (Coming in October 2015...www.italyinvades.com).

Hi,
The very next time I read a blog, I hope that it does not disappoint me as much as this particular one.New Year Greetings For Business I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I truly thought you would probably have something useful to say. All I hear is a bunch of crying about something that you could possibly fix if you were not too busy searching for attention.
