Old Swiss Confederalism

Old Swiss Confederalism is the political system that was in place during the 1300s to 1848 in the "Alte Eidgenossenschaft" (Old Switzerland.

It started out as a confederation between the cantons Uri, Schwyz and Underwalden. Not like modern Switzerland that is very isolationist and neutral during conflics the Eidgenossenschaft was quite expansionistic and conquered many more teretories.

During the reformation era some cantons started to turn evangelic while the others stayed catholic. This division later caused the "Sonderbunds Krieg" which was a civil war caused by religious tentions.
