	Hmmm, my last guess was Germany which was occupied of course, but not "Occupied" as in taken over by a conquering power. grasping at straws, I guess. Oh well, missing one isn't all that bad.

	Curse you, Prince Franz Josef II of Liechtenstein and your close neutrality-resulting ties with the Swiss!!! (Sorry... sorry. Deep breath. 10/11 isn't bad!) @Roman- I'm guessing the tag-line refers to Andorra, Switzerland, Liechtenstein (curse you!!! Sorry... sorry), Vatican City and Iceland.

	switzerland. the most obvious answer in any neutrality quiz.

	@marcustullius - Finland is an odd case. It accepted support from the Nazis in its war with the Soviets (including German forces stationed in Finland fighting with the Finns against the Soviets). But it was not really a member of the axis powers either. I think that for the purposes of this quiz, it can be said to have been occupied. At the end of the war, Finland had to fight the Germans to push them out of northern Finland (Lapland) and back into Norway.

	Guernsey was occupied by the Germans and this is technically part of the UK, so maybe that shouldn't be on the list. And @Hamburger Cyprus is in Europe, where else would it be?

	"The Pope? How many divisions has he got?" (I know, Hitler did not say this!)

	@Chrimatt - Guernsey is not technically part of the UK e.g. it is not represented in Parliament. Technically, Cyprus is physically in Asia.

	@david6k: In my opinion, Finland should be included in this list, as it was neither "occupied or controlled by members of the Axis powers". Allied with Germans, yes, but never signed the Tripartite Act, either. Lapland War can be a point of contention, though, as Finns had to force the German troops to withdraw from Lapland. However, those troops had never actually invaded nor occupied the area, nor had they any political or administrative control there. They just became "unwanted guests".

	Completed with 2 seconds to spare... almost missed Liectenstein, the little thing!

	Sporcilitis: I guessed Liechtenstein second and the UK with 15 seconds left on the clock.

	eab21:	Apr 18th, 2011 at 23:02 GMT		5 points
	Had 10/11 answers with 9 seconds left, and as a last-second desperation attempt I typed Germany. O_o

	If the president of France is co-prince of Andorra, then what happened in WW2? Did they just split away in 1940?

	guess the pope didn;t pick a side then

	@padawanofpie: (a) 35% of takers missing Iceland doesn’t mean they thought it was occupied by the Axis, it more likely means when they ran through a mental map of Europe in their head, they missed Iceland (which is pretty easy to do); and (b), occupying Iceland wouldn’t have been strategically stupid for Germany at all — it would have given them a strong naval base in the North Atlantic, where sea power was crucial, and indeed the UK/US occupied Iceland themselves from 1940 exactly to prevent this happening. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Iceland

	beatrixkiddo: Germany were so afraid of the forces at the Pope's disposal that they begged him to stay out of it. Begged with stolen gold, among other things, but begged nonetheless...

	@marcustullius: in spite of your purely Latin nickname, I guessed you're from the Netherlands because you spelled "by" as "bij".
