Hmm... I hardly got your point here I guess. Colonization of Switzerland? Well there wasn't any Switzerland when celtics were there... and later on a German tribe (do not have anything in common with "Germany" or "German") the Helvetians were there and then large parts were roman... but overall it's mixed up region...
Switzerland nowadays mainly consists of parts that were culturally influenced by Italy, France or Germany... but that joined the Swiss confederation before there were the now known countries Italy or Germany... and France did look different.

∙ 11y agoThe last time a foreign army entered Switzerland was during the Napoleonic wars. (1798-1815).
Initially the French entered Switzerland. Most of the French-speaking part of Switzerland was annexed by France and the rest become a satellite state.
In the First Battle of Zurich (4-7 June 1799), the French were defeated and the city was captured by the Austrians.
The Second Battle of Zurich (25-26 September 1799) was a French victory over an Austrian and Russian force.
At the end of the Napoleonic wars other armies fighting the French passed through what is now Switzerland.
