In 1291, while the rest of Europe bowed to Kings and Emperors, three small valleys made a different choice. They chose an Oath. SUBSCRIBE for more history hidden in the Alps.
The Birth of Switzerland isn't just a story about William Tell—it’s the true story of how the cantons of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden formed the "Eternal Alliance" to defy the rising power of the Habsburgs.
In this video, we analyze the Rütlischwur (The Rütli Oath), the Federal Charter of 1291, and how a decentralized group of alpine farmers invented a system of government that effectively told the Holy Roman Empire to back off. No Kings. No Emperors. Just an oath.
The victory at the "battle of morgarten" did more than secure survival for the men of Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden; it provided proof that their covenant held real power. The Morgartenbrief, signed less than a month after the battle, formalized cooperation between the three cantons, marking a pivotal moment in "european history" and the early identity of the "old swiss confederacy". This pledge of mutual defense and shared responsibility in "switzerland" effectively told the "holy roman empire" to back off.
