General information
A landlocked, majestically-scenic country, Switzerland's long standing neutral status has given it political stability that has helped it become one of the world's wealthiest countries where banking is its key industry.
Formally neutral since just before the Napoleonic wars of the early 19th century and informally for about 300 years before that, Switzerland joined the UN in September 2002.
Membership of the European Economic Area was rejected by referendum in 1992 and Swiss-US relations are now based on an extensive range of bilateral agreements.
Ties became closer in 2005, when Switzerland backed membership of the EU Schengen and Dublin agreements. A further referendum the same year opened the job market to workers from the 10 newest EU members countries.
