	Politics of Switzerland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Politics of Switzerland takes place in a framework of a federal parliamentary democratic republic, whereby the Federal Council of Switzerland is the head of government, and of a pluriform multi-party system.
		Switzerland is the closest state in the world to a direct democracy.

		During their 12-year rule, the Nazis sent massive armies throughout almost all of continental Europe (with the exception of Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Sweden, Portugal and the land near the Ural Mountains).
		[[Berlin during the Nazi era.]] On January 30, 1933, Hitler was appointed Chancellor by President Paul von Hindenburg after attempts by General Kurt von Schleicher to form a viable government failed and under heavy pressure from former Chancellor Franz von Papen.
