[Elvain]

Yes, someone should, because it's the right answer (22) :lol:

so with an answer, ask a question too :wink:

[Elvain]

anyone to ask a question?

(the right answer to my question is the only which wasn't chosen yet, so the one who posts first should ask a question)

[Kuno of Gersenau]

ok, let's do it: C) :tongue:

I stay at Swiss history. (Haven't got a better idea, sorry)

In which of those years was NO civil war in Switzerland?

a) 1847
b) 1442
c) 1531
d) 1602
e) 1656
f) 1712

[Xuca]

Either you had many civil wars, or there are multiple choices... C)?

[Kuno of Gersenau]

No, you're wrong. 1531 was the first religion war between catholics and protestants.

No multiple choice, but yes, we had many civil wars,but actually most people don't even know about one. They were mostly caused by religious problems. Eventhough they actually were no real civil wars, because the diffrent cantons were de facto independent states until the 19th century.

[Elvain]

so 1442? there should be no religious problems back then :scratch: unless you had hussites there :lol:

funny. Today I heard about plan to apply swiss model on Israeli-Palestinian problem. And then considering the number of wars... Well if Israelis and palestinians would be given the same time as the Swiss between 1291 and 1848 there could be then a peacefull sohabitance of those 2 nations :peace:

[Kuno of Gersenau]

No you're wrong as well.

It's right, that there were no religious problems, but political. Zurich and the central Cantons of Schwyz and Glarus all wanted to expand their territory in the same direction. This finally lead to a war between Zurich and the other mambers of the Eidgenossenschaft (confederation?)

Don't think this would work there, swiss system grew with time and as well neded a war before being installed in the way it is today.

[Kuno of Gersenau]

Too hard question, I admit that probably noone can really know, so I'll end it:

d) 1602

I have no idea for a new question at the momnt, so first one who has an idea should feel free to ask...

[Xuca]

no .

[Elvain]

Podgorica :peace:

:bash: after declaring of independence of Montenegro we lost the uniqueness of the only peacefull state-division.

[Xuca]

Well, they wanted to go and we never really needed them... anyway, you're correct.
