    Good answers guys. "Not many" is probably my personal favourite haha.

    The answer (according to wikipedia) is 6: Vatican City, Costa Rica, Panama, Switzerland, Turkmenistan, and Liechtenstein.

    Edit:
    Including EU countries the total number is 11 with additions of: Austria, Finland, Ireland, Malta, and Sweden.

    Fun fact, a lot of neutral countries such as Switzerland, Sweden, and Austria are among some of the biggest weapons manufacturers in the world.

    Iceland indeed has no military. However, it is a member of NATO which abolishes their neutrality.

    Tulips is correct although, onions or garlic would have more of a reusable value for me :)

    Tulips made men fortunes in Holland. Read it in Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire
