Why Switzerland's Geography Made It Rich (And Neutral)

Описание: Switzerland didn’t become rich or neutral by accident. Its mountains, valleys, rivers, and borders quietly shaped one of the most successful national strategies in history.

This video explains why Switzerland’s geography made it both wealthy and permanently neutral. From the protective barrier of the Alps and hard-to-invade terrain to strategic trade routes, natural chokepoints, and decentralized regions, Switzerland’s landscape forced it to develop banking, diplomacy, precision industry, and defense in ways few other countries could.

We break down how geography discouraged conquest, encouraged cooperation, enabled secure finance, and made neutrality not just a moral stance — but a survival strategy that paid off for centuries.

This isn’t just a history lesson. It’s proof that geography can shape destiny.

Watch till the end — the final reason explains why neutrality worked for Switzerland but failed for many others.
