Switzerland is a confederation of states... only three of the now included 20 full and 6 semi-states were present when Switzerland was founded as agreement to defend their interests (the territory was occupied) in 1291.

One of these three states (in a leader role) was called Schwyz... giving the name and the flag of Switzerland. The state Schwyz had its name apparently from an ancient military leader of the alemanni (as they were living there). This leader is called Suito or Suittes, etc. and a village Suittes existed since 972.

As an addition the history of Switzerland's flag and its name 'helvetia'.

The Helvetians were living in the area during the times of the Roman Empire (a German, alemanni tribe). As the Romans had political trouble they tried to concentrate on something else and made the Helvetians 'famous' as bloodthirsty. This tribe is still considered as a symbolical root of Switzerland's population.

Back to the flag of Switzerland... the state of Schwyz received a red flag for its service for the germanic emperor (red - the power to decide between life and death). As there were 'christian wars' the cross was a frequent symbol... as a consequence to new supports Schwyz received a white cross. The Swiss troops appeared with this flag for the first time in the battle of Laupen 1339... making them famous and expensive mercenaries until the end of medieval times (the guards at the vatican are a relict of these times). As the flag was originally a war banner it was quadratic. Up to now Switzerland (besides the Vatican) is the only country on earth with a quadratic flag. Ratio 2:3 is used at Sea only.
