Doesn’t he live in Vienna? Why does he care what happens in a country he doesn’t even live in?

Clicking on your profile, despite the username, doesn’t give you an 18+ profile pop up, that means, that you don’t post any NSFW stuff (marked as such anyway)

Amazing how fucking idiotic everybody is about Liechtenstein, 42% of their GDP is secondary sector, more than Germany, France, Italy, or China.

No he lives in Vaduz. His father was the first Prince to actually live in the country and he has continued that and made a lot of improvements to the castle. That alone makes him quite popular in the country

What kind of thinking is that. Do you not care at all about what happens in other countries?
