I think itd be more likely Switzerland. theres a lot of mountains there and it is a neutral nation, perhaps one of the few remaining countries after the titans appeared. I think it'd be based in the future, possibly after an anti-relgious war where the year was reset (our current system is based on Jesus) so humans lived for a while until either a) the government started experimenting to make super soldiers, obviously backfiring severely b) Some sortof god-being hated the lack of faith and the fighting amongst mankind and decided to send Titans as our reckoning or way to unite us c) Aliens.
