How'd Liechenstein avoide getting eaten up by the Austrian Empire? It's basically defenseless and ethnically close to the Austrians, who or what was preventing a liechensteiner annexation?
I can tell you why. Nobody cared.

Liechenstein was a state in the Holy Roman Empire. The letters of FL which can be found on license plates mean Fürstentum Liechtenstein and dates back from feudal times. Austria, Switzerland or Germany would never annex Liechtenstein, because they didn't care and saw them as equals.

Nobody gave a fuck since it has no value and is in the mountains, it is essentially a part of Switzerland now however.

Mountains.
That is the literal and metaphorical reason.

If that is the case then Taiwan is also part of China (it is not)
You should be asking why Liechtenstein never annexed Austria, a weaker country right on their border
