Edmond-Charles Genet was the French ambassador sent to the US in 1793. Instead of going to the capital and presenting his credentials to the President, he went to Charleston, SC and commissioned privateers to aid the French in their war with Britain. He finally went to Philapelphia and asked the US to aid France in ways that would amount to ending neutrality. His actions became known as the Citizen Genet Affair.

Was it easier for Norway Spain and Sweden to remain neutral than it was for Switzerland in World War?

It was not easier for Norway as that country was invaded and occupied despite its neutrality. Less than a year earlier Great Britain violated Norwegian neutrality when it boarded and captured the German ship Altmark in Norwegian waters. I should think that maintaining neutrality was more difficult for Switzerland than Sweden, as Switzerland was surrounded on all sides by the Axis for most of the war. As for Spain, it was ruled by a fascist government which did not throw in with the Axis, but the Allies were very careful not to antagonize the Spanish and push them in that direction.


Why did Norway ally with The Allies?

The simple answer is that Germany occupied Norway, and your enemy's enemy is your friend. For the long answer, we need to look back to WWI. Norway was neutral and was supplying Germany with canned fish. The British were fed up with this, and presented Norway with an ultimatum; Stop feeding Germany, or we stop supplying you with coal. Norway now had to choose sides, and this sparked a collaboration where a large portion of the Norwegian commercial fleet was put at Britain's disposal. However, Norway still claimed to be neutral. When WWII started, Norway once again declared it's neutrality, but the government had the view that if war became inevitable they had to side with Britain.
