Top 10 Countries that are the Most Difficult to Invade

You know it will be on the list! Plus, America has one of the strongest militaries in the world, along with the United Kingdom, South Korea, China, and Russia, among others.

Additionally, America is a global superpower, so the odds of beating it in a fight are extremely low - lower than winning the lottery three times in a row, getting struck by lightning, and surviving a nuclear winter. So, good luck!

I think one big thing about the U.S. is that even if you are able to cross the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans to get to us, and even if you defeat all our allies, and even if you somehow defeat our military, you would still lose.

Want to know why? America's citizens are fighters. Most of them would do anything for their country. It's simply in their blood, ever since the beginning.

Just like Australia, Canada is hard to invade because of its geography. However, instead of hot deserts and deadly animals, you'll have to go through many feet of snow.

Canada is very close allies with the United States, so unless you want to deal with two strong nations, I suggest you raid an island or yourself. Canada is full of snow, so you have to navigate through very cold weather, huge piles of snow, and many more obstacles that could end the lives of many of your men.

Canada is not to be messed with. They have the protection of the U.S., Britain, France, and more. They are liked by a lot of countries.

Australia is difficult to invade because of its geography. It is home to a variety of deserts and deadly animals like the Sydney funnel-web spiders.

Not only does that give Australia a huge advantage and a secret place to plan their attacks, it's basically pointless to raid this country unless you want to lose like a third of your men to deadly animals and the heat of the deserts.

Just like Canada, Russia has lots of snow. So, if you want to invade Russia, you'd better stock up on winter clothes. Russia also has one of the most powerful militaries in the world, along with NATO, the U.S., China, and Australia.

Russia is very powerful. They've only lost three wars: World War I, the Russo-Japanese War, and the Russian Civil War against the Red Army.

So, invading Russia in a nutshell:
Someone: Raid Russia.
Also them: Faces tons of snow and cold weather.
Army: Surrenders.
Dictator: No, that's not how you're supposed to play the game!

People have tried to conquer Russia and they have failed, mainly because of the climate and the adaptability of its people.

China should not be on our list of countries to invade. They have tons of nukes and are catching up to America in becoming the next superpower.

China also has a very large population, so you'll be dealing with over 1 billion people, which is more than the United States.

Japan is also a country in East Asia, like South Korea, China, and Russia. They are a very close ally to the U.S., so messing with them would end very badly.

This country ranks in the top 10 on the list of countries considered for the Global Firepower Index (GFP). Good luck.

They have earthquakes, so you need to have a lot of engineers.

Also on this list, South Korea shouldn't be messed with. They have advanced technology and spend a lot of money on their large military.

South Korea is also a very close ally to America. So, not only will you face one country with advanced technology and a powerful military, but you will also face a superpower. So, go raid someone else.

As a Vietnamese, I know that Vietnam was able to defeat many large countries in the past. Although Vietnam is small, they are not as weak as you might think.

Vietnam is also a strong country and managed to make America surrender during the Vietnam War. They also managed to defeat China and gained freedom from France.

Brazil is very difficult to conquer because of the Amazon. An invading army would likely perish attempting to take over the Amazon, and the capital is also situated well inland.

Way too hot and polluted. It would take an eternity and you would need to cleanse the water.

The United Kingdom's Navy is formidable and ranks #2 in countries with the most military victories. Additionally, their nation is composed of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, and England.

So, instead of fighting one country like the others on the list, you're fighting four countries. Even Uncle Sam himself wouldn't want to mess with the United Kingdom.

Not even the British and Soviets could take over this place. It's essentially Vietnam with mountains.

France may surrender and be likened to that one kid who pees his/her pants, but France is not to be messed with. They have one of the strongest navies in the world.

Additionally, France ranks #1 among countries with the most military victories, following the powerful United Kingdom and the famous/infamous United States.

Mountains. Why did it have to be mountains?!

Italy was able to defeat Albania, and their military is steadily growing.

Iran is mostly mountainous and very difficult to conquer. Just ask Iraq and the Ottomans.

Sri Lanka is backed by China and Russia, so don't even try invading it. You'll have to deal with two billion people, which is more than what India and Bhutan could muster.

In the past, Poland has been invaded countless times. However, they are now a U.S. ally. Poland even managed to defeat Russia after the First World War.
