About Andorra
Andorra is a small, landlocked country located in the Pyrenees mountains between Spain and France. It has an area of about 181 square miles and a population of about 77,000 people. Andorra is a parliamentary democracy with two co-princes, the President of France and the Bishop of Urgell in Spain, who serve as joint heads of state. The country has a high standard of living and a stable economy, with a focus on tourism and banking. It is not a member of the European Union, but it does use the euro as its official currency and has close economic and political ties with both France and Spain. Andorra has a long history of neutrality and has not been involved in any major international conflicts.
Geography & terrain
Landlocked, no coastline. Entirely mountainous, tucked high in the Pyrenees between France and Spain, with an alpine climate of cold winters and mild summers. Its steep, enclosed terrain makes large-scale invasion impractical, and the country's small size and natural isolation have long kept it outside major conflicts.
About Peru
Peru is a country located in western South America. It is bordered by Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, and the Pacific Ocean. Peru is a diverse country with a rich history and culture, and it is home to a wide range of natural and man-made attractions. The country has a mixed economy that is largely based on agriculture, mining, and manufacturing.
Peru has a presidential representative democratic republic form of government, with the president serving as both head of state and head of government. The country has a bicameral Congress, consisting of the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
Peru has a diverse population, with a mix of indigenous, Spanish, and African ancestry. The official language is Spanish, and the country has a wide range of indigenous languages as well. The majority of the population is Roman Catholic, but there is also a significant Protestant minority.
Peru has a long history of political instability, with a number of military coups and authoritarian governments throughout its history. However, in recent years, the country has made significant progress in terms of improving its political and economic stability. In 2021, Peru faced significant challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impacts, as well as social and political unrest.
Geography & terrain
Three distinct zones: an arid coastal desert strip, the towering central Andes mountains, and dense Amazon rainforest in the east. Climate ranges from dry desert on the coast to cold alpine in the highlands and hot, humid conditions in the jungle. Coastline on the Pacific Ocean. The Andes have historically been a major natural barrier slowing invasion from east to west, while the coastal desert and Amazon add further difficulty for any large force.

Solo scenario: Andorra vs Peru
Battle narrative
Initial phase
With both the bigger war chest and the stronger air force, Peru is well placed to seize the initiative early, striking key military and infrastructure targets first.
Force composition
Peru can also call on significantly more personnel, counting both active-duty and reserve forces. Peru's advantage extends to naval power as well.
Ground campaign
Andorra's terrain could make a rapid ground campaign difficult: Its steep, enclosed terrain makes large-scale invasion impractical, and the country's small size and natural isolation have long kept it outside major conflicts. Andorra la Vella would likely be a focal point of the campaign: The capital and only significant town, occupying the country's main valley and controlling its limited road access to France and Spain. Peru's terrain could make a rapid ground campaign difficult: The Andes have historically been a major natural barrier slowing invasion from east to west, while the coastal desert and Amazon add further difficulty for any large force. Lima would likely be a focal point of the campaign: The capital forms Peru's dominant center of population, government, and logistics, adjoining the country's main seaport. Peru's larger population could also support a prolonged resistance.
Prolonged conflict
Peru's stronger economy could help sustain military operations in a prolonged conflict. Occupying Andorra outright would likely prove costly given its terrain.
Overall assessment
Peru would be more likely to prevail in this matchup, with an estimated 89.7% probability of winning. Achieving a decisive victory over Andorra — let alone occupying it — would likely be more difficult than that headline number suggests.
