Any war-related worries one might have if Germany leaves the currency union or the EU should also apply to Norway [edited] and Switzerland (not in the EU at all), as well as the UK, the Czech Republic and Hungary (in the EU, but not Euro nations).

So is a war between the Czech Republic and Hungary, or Finland and Sweden a reasonable worry over your 20 year timeframe?

[edit: confused Finland with Norway.]

I wouldn't be so optimist.

Finland not in the EU? Which EU are you talking about?
