I am a simple Swiss guy, i see sombody talk about us.. i like it.
Love to switzerland frmo mexico, I love your food and music, amazing country, in europe
Even if they're talking badly about you ?
@@Valdoy depends on the point of view, if i agree with them, yeah. No country is perfect 🤣
I want to travel to Switzerland...that's all...hailing from a country pretty far away in North America. No, I am not going to display my flag (even if you ask me nicely).
hoii bin au us de schwiiz. vo wo chunsch? :P
Don't know much about Switzerland but their flag is a huge plus.

SWISS German! Not German. Believe me, very important.
T.J. Snyder i used to speak german trust me swiss german is alot diffrent. Kinda like norwegian And danish and austria is like Sweden
@@TJ042 I mean yes that is a tiny difference. But that makes up like 0.001% of the differences between the languages lol
How different is Swiss French from France French ?
@UK LCH Thanks very much. 😁
@@JUstMoveeeabsolutly not, there is a LOT of difference, like even the numbers, they are pronounsed differently
17:43 Schweiz is actually hight German, Swiss German would be: schwiiz
Yes I'll get nit picky now
Izs not high german like hochdeutsch its just german und es isch im getting nitpicky now aber egal😂
What the H is height German.

I like how there are lawyers to defend animals in Switzerland, mostly because animals can't defend themselves and anyone that intentionally causes harm to a defenceless animal deserves to be punished.
Additional facts: Although not known widely arond the world, Switzerland has a distictive coffee culture. The fully automatic espresso machine was invented here and also the first capsule coffee maker, mostly known as the Nespresso machine.
Bonus fact: The song "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple, is based on a fire incident, watched by the band in 1971 in Montreux.
And an additional one: here in the canton de Vaud, we dont l'île the lake Léman to be called lake Geneva, and perhaps as a revenge, we like to tell them they are French (as a joke or an insult, depending on the time... but mostly as a joke).

@@thomasvu3756 Here some more additional facts. Outside of Switzerland, Swiss companies like Nestle don't care about the environmental impact of their products as along as they make money.
Glencore is another Swiss company which quite happily contaminates African rivers by the discharge of waste water from the KCC mine into the Luilu River.
Swiss commodities trading companies -Trafigura - dominate the dirty business of filthy fuel in Africa. The company supplies fuel with excessive sulfur ,even sells it via its own networks of petrol stations and also produces the toxic blend itself. It has no interest in seeing standards change given that it systematically takes advantages of weak African standards to optimise its profit margins.
So Thomas , even though Switzerland is the richest country in the world , it has no soul and just keeps taking advantage of countries which are desperate of any sort of income

@@scala4595 I know Switzerland isn’t a perfect country but there’s no perfect country in our world and Switzerland know it and gladly talk about the past of the country. Plus it’s not Switzerland fault but companies’s one so if you want me to tell some bad things that your country’ve done, I’d like to do so. I aren’t defending companies’s cause but I just want Switzerland to be trashtalk with good reason and be objective about it. Just don’t talk about something badly without know a bit about it, it could be usefull to your future. Sign: a person that hate see someone say bad thing about something they don’t know well (and I hope I didn’t make stupid spelling mistakes un this text) in hope to see you more objective about what you talk.
My German teacher asked me and my classmate to do a project about Switzerland two years ago! Apparently, our teacher forgot it because we still haven't presented it yet!

Fact 102: Despite being a tiny landlocked country, they have their own port in the city of Basel connecting them to the sea.
Fact 103: They have a high seas fleet called the "Merchant Marine of Switzerland".
Fact 104: That navy is the largest merchant navy of a landlocked country on earth.
Fact 105: Their military has it's own navy divison called "Motorbootkompanie" (a sub part of their engineering division).
Appenzell Inerrhoden is pronounced as Inner Rhoden and not Innerr Hoden (this would translate into Inner Testicle)😅 Otherwise very good video about my homecountry😄👍
But the real question is: What is he trying to tell us by "ausgefranste Existenz"?

4:56 actually its just august. Noone is sure on the day, just the month
MetaKnightEX nah man it‘s August 1st we don‘t celebrate the entire month
@@toxic_2350. Jo sicher ischs nur da erst August wo en fiirtag isch, aber dä Pakt zwüschad Uri Schwyz und Unterwalde, isch eif. im August 1291 gsi. Und ned umbedingt am 1 August
@@metaknightex Uhhhh...
Look the thing is.... nobody really knows.
Not even the the year is very clear and it wasn't really a contract to form a confederacy(eidgenossenschaft).
Over the time frame of the late 13th century and the beginning of the 14th centeruy there were some alliances formed in central switzerland that just grew more and more.
Look for example at the Tell Monument in Altdorf were "1307" is written in the Monument itself, because in central switzerland the year of 1307 was more widespread as the birthyear of switzerland then 1291.
The reason why everyone thinks that 1291 is the birthyear of switzerland, is because the goverement choosed this date and made it official, together with the 1. of august.
It's just random and there is almost no historical background to this date, the main reason for choosing 1291 over 1307 was mainly because they could combine the celebration of the city of bern(founded in 1191) with the celebration of the swiss confederacy...
Look at wikipedia: "Foundation date ca. 1300[note 2] (traditionally 1 August 1291)"
I know it's sounds dull, but its the truth.
But honestly I don't mind 1. August is in midsummer and it's a day off to make some nice BBQ and see some fireworks. Better then late september when the confederation was reformed in 1848.
101 facts about Denmark
@J Thorsson nah, you can't have that skin color in our country, only snow white is an acceptable skin tone
Germany has a problem with them now, but hey, it is not like they never have gotten rid of minorities by the millions before, and by the way, google this guy "rasmus paludan", that is what every generic danish person feels like.
@J Thorsson fair enough

101 facts about f1
I think you should have mentioned that its Swiss German, since it's really a different language, and the fact that within that language there are more than 30 dialects. It's a common mistake but really easy to look it up. Many German people can't understand Swiss German, but Swiss people do understand German because it is mandatory to learn it in school (since Swiss German is written in German) :))
Turn back time was sung by Cher. Forgetaboutit!!!
Yes. Exactly! Get your legendary female singers right, Sam!

I was in Zurich in January, a couple years ago . . . And was very much surprised to see . . . NO snow! I was informed that contrary to popular foreign belief, Zurich wasn't all that cold (Except in the mountains) and didn't have a very long period of snow; only a few weeks.
michael silver it‘s based very low and not in the mouintans. There are not a lot of big cities in the alps even tho 2/3 of Switzerland are the alps.
