I've always said that as much as we talk about the violence of the Middle East and Africa, we largely ignore the massive amounts of bloodshed there has been in Europe through history.
It's just never a constant violence there, it's a powderkeg that builds up and all at once it blows and total destruction happens.

Reading about all of the Houses influences during a weak fractured time of the Holy Roman Empire, reminded me of Game of Thrones. I have also wondered how Switzerland could stay so strong and neutral and how their banking system was built up. Now reading about the powerful Habsburg's of Switzerland - Austria area it helps me clue in a bit more.
