George Washington sought to maintain neutrality in conflicts between France and Great Britain during his presidency. He believed that avoiding entanglement in foreign wars was crucial for the young nation’s stability and growth. Washington's Neutrality Proclamation of 1793 emphasized this stance, urging Americans to refrain from taking sides. His approach set a precedent for American foreign policy, prioritizing national interests over international alliances.

As far as I know, you have to be in perfect health to join the French foreign legion. There is a thorough medical check during the selection process.
Sweden can be pretty self sufficient (as prooven during its neutrality and economic isolation during the world wars.) But in an global economy Sweden is pretty dependent on cheap labour and petroleum as there is no oil fields in the baltic sea big enough for cultivation.

The Neutrality Proclamation, issued by President George Washington in 1793, declared the United States' intention to remain neutral in the conflict between France and Great Britain during the French Revolutionary Wars. It aimed to prevent American involvement in foreign wars and to protect U.S. trade interests. The proclamation emphasized the importance of avoiding entanglements in European affairs and set a precedent for American foreign policy that favored neutrality.
The law passed in 1935 by the US Congress is known as the Neutrality Act. This legislation aimed to prevent the United States from becoming entangled in foreign conflicts by imposing a ban on the export of arms and war materials to nations involved in wars. The Neutrality Act was part of a broader set of measures designed to maintain American neutrality in international disputes during a period of rising global tensions.
President George Washington was largely successful in maintaining American neutrality during his presidency, particularly in the face of European conflicts such as the French Revolutionary Wars. His administration's implementation of the Neutrality Proclamation of 1793 established a clear stance against involvement in foreign wars, which helped to keep the young nation from being entangled in external conflicts. Washington's diplomatic efforts, including the Jay Treaty with Britain, further reinforced this policy. However, challenges remained, as tensions with France and internal divisions over foreign policy highlighted the complexities of sustaining neutrality.
Non-alignment refers to a foreign policy stance where a country does not align itself with any major power bloc or alliance, such as NATO or the Warsaw Pact during the Cold War. Non-aligned countries aim to maintain independence and neutrality in international politics, often pursuing a policy of peaceful coexistence with all nations.
