Poland seems to be one of those odd places, Belgum is similar.  Nobody
actually wants it - it's just in the way if you want to invade somewhere
else more appealing.

Finland is similar, except the inhabitants are better at winter warfare
than anyone else and there is no gain in fighting them.

In Europe the low countries are the target, the Balklands are just in
the way.  With Global Warming they may have the last laugh.
