I was wondering for a while but is an invasion of the United States even possible?
People have often written of scenarios and stories of what would happen if the United States was invaded by a foreign power, but I would imagine that the Invasion of the United States would actually be very difficult or almost impossible for a nation to do even if the United States was weakened?
points
- The United States is protected by two vast oceans and guarded by the greatest modern navy and air force that has even existed.
- a large percentage of U.S citizenry is armed and loyal to the United States so guerrilla warfare is basically assured.
- the United States is vast and is composed of many environments.
Are there any other points I missed? What would need to happen for the United States to be open to an attack?
Basically, was it even possible for any country to invade the United States after 1900?
