 | | The Principality of Liechtenstein (German: Fürstentum Liechtenstein) is a small, doubly landlocked country in central Europe (one of only two such states in the world, the other being Uzbekistan), bordered by Switzerland to its west and by Austria to its east. |
 | | The Liechtenstein dynasty, from which the Principality takes its name (rather than vice-versa), takes its name from Castle Liechtenstein in faraway Lower Austria, which it owned from at least 1140 to the 13th century and from 1807 onwards. |
 | | At the close of the conflict, Czechoslovakia and Poland, acting to seize German possessions, expropriated the entirety of the Liechtenstein dynasty's hereditary lands and possessions in Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia /the Princes of Liechtenstein lived of course in Vienna and not in the remote valley/. |
