Flag meaning
The white cross symbolizes christianity, neutrality, democracy and peace.

Influence by The Red Cross symbol used by the International Committee of the Red Cross, a red cross on white background, was the original protection symbol declared at the first Geneva Convention, the Convention for the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded in Armies in the Field of 1864. According to the ICRC the design was based on the Swiss flag by reversing of the colours of that flag, in order to honour Switzerland, where the first Geneva Convention was held, and its inventor and co-founder, the Swiss Henry Dunant.

France
The legend says that every time Switzerland want to eat cheese, she has to draught off her doors and windows or France will know it and eat all the precious cheese. Apart from that, they both shares their loves for the Alps and often ski together. Switzerland is the supplier of France's secret reserve of chocolate. Switzerland told us that once France said if she had to choose between their wine and her, they would definitely choose her, it really warmed Switzerland's heart.

Germany
Switzerland sees Germany as a "big brother". They speak the same language but Switzerland's accent makes it hard for Germany to understand her. Switzerland is also not as confident as Germany and finds it annoying when Germany gets too loud. These two countries have an okay-ish relationship.

Italy
Switzerland likes hanging out with Italy because of the warm weather. Italy used to work together with Switzerland a lot. Good relationship.

China
China buys a lot of watches from Switzerland. It can get a bit annoying but money is always good.
