What dictatorship is Switzerland?

Switzerland is not a dictatorship, it is a democracy.

Switzerland is a confederation of 26 semi-independent cantons. A canton is equivalent to what is called a state in English-speaking federal countries.

It has a very democratic system of government. As many decisions as possible are made at the cantonal level. Each canton has its own constitution, parliament, laws and court system. Most of the cantons were once independent countries, and on many ways continue to act as such.

As well as regular elections, Switzerland has a form of "direct democracy" where any decision can be put to a referendum. A petition is started, signatures are collected and if enough signatures are collected there has to be a referendum which is binding. A referendum can be at the federal or cantonal level.

Switzerland has a collective head of state, the seven-member federal council. The president is the chairman of this council.

Traditionally the duty rotates among the members in order of seniority and the previous year's Vice President becomes President.
