Berne, affected by the tension in the European situation, Switzerland, a neutral country, also had its difficulties.
Contrary to what later generations of keyboard warriors might think, Switzerland, the "Roof of Europe," indeed had a significant strategic location.
On the contrary, Switzerland, which lies at the heart of Western Europe, next to Austria in the east, neighboring Italy in the south, bordering France in the west, and connected to Baden and Württemberg in the north, has always been an important European thoroughfare with vital strategic importance.
Due to its mountainous terrain, Switzerland has many strategic points, for example, St. Gotthard and St. Bernard, which have always been hotly contested by military strategists.
As the European war drew near, Switzerland, as a neutral country, became the center of the storm, and deciding which side to take became a difficult problem.
