Languages spread from place to place as people who speak them migrate from place to place. Countries, or nations, get their borders established in a few different ways. The areas where people speak the same language might, for whatever reason, become different countries. The present-day borders separate Germany from Austria and Switzerland, though German is spoken right across those borders. Switzerland, on the other hand, has areas where the main language is French or Italian. You could have asked the same question about French, shich is spoken in France but also part of Switzerland and part of Belgium.
