I just realised Switzerland isn't party of EU. I keep confusing Sweden with Switzerland for some reason, they both start with Sw so maybe that.

This reminds me of a video where Europeans were shown a map of the USA and had to point at the state the interviewer asked and vice versa. So the interviewer asks someone in the US and he put Sweden and Switzerland next to each other in Scandinavia and than later this interviewer asks about Slovakia (I think) and the guy goes "well, here are all the s-countries so it must be there somewhere" I laughed my ass of for real.
I mean, we've mostly heard about the uninhabited and rarely visited Australian island that got an entry, right? Apparently the penguins are cutting unfair trade deals.
Afaik, it does work as a country, even if it's not formally one.
The EU should become a country and it was over 95 years late.
