Swiss Confederacy (Merveilles du Monde Map Game)

The Swiss Confederacy is a nation comprised of several small states in the Alps region in an alliance of mutual defence and trade. The central government consists of a council of representatives from each state/canton to resolve disputes between states and decide foreign policy positions, but each canton is allowed to manage their own internal affairs.

The Swiss Confederacy was formed in 1291 by a charter between the cantons of Schwyz, Unterwalden and Uri.
