How Liechtenstein Became the World’s Quietest and Wealthiest Nation

Liechtenstein is one of Europe’s smallest countries, home to just 40,000 people. It has no airport of its own and uses the Swiss franc for all transactions. The nation’s remarkable prosperity comes from its thriving banking sector, advanced manufacturing and global financial services. These industries generate billions in revenue every year. Crime is almost non-existent in this peaceful principality. Fewer than 100 police officers patrol the entire country, and the prison population sometimes dips below ten. Local residents prize privacy over display. Even the royal family’s vast fortune is rarely flaunted, yet it’s said to rival that of some of Europe’s most famous monarchs.
