Swiss Naval Site

i hereby present this list of the worlds top ten small navies:

1. The Pontifical Vatican Navy
2. Royal Bhutanese Navy
3. Peoples Navy of Mongolia
4. Royal Lesotho Navy
5. Andorran Navy
6. Royal Jordanian Navy
7. Afghan Navy
8. San Marino Navy
9. Royal Liecheistien Navy

of course one reason to have a navy is to defend against pirates :P

That's what i call a good shot .
