Best Answer

The territory of todays Switzerland has been settled upon by kelts and then german tribes and incorporated into the ancient Roman Empire. in medieval times, the different parts of switzerland were not yet unified and either belonged to french, italian and mostly german kingdoms or were tied to them through economic and protection treaties. after switzerland and the nations of modern europe started to take shape it was conquered and occupied only once from 1798 to 1802 by France under napoleon. In the two world wars surrounding it, switzerland was spared.
