That's the plot of The Mouse That Roared. Some small country declares war, so they can lose and get the big country to rebuild their entire nation.

    I could have sworn I saw that some small island nation basically goaded a bigger power to dispatch some nominal military force just so they could immediately surrender and be "conquered", much to the surprise of the military folks that were expecting hostility.

    But I cannot find any reference, so either some video made it up and I fell for it, or I just can't find it.
