BASIC INFO. GEOGRAPHY GOVERNMENT ... SWITZERLAND Switzerland is a federal state composed of 26 cantons (20 are "full" cantons and six "half" cantons for purposes of representation in the federal legislature) that retain attributes of sovereignty, such as fiscal autonomy and the right to manage internal cantonal affairs. Under the 1874 constitution, cantons hold all powers not specifically delegated to the federation. Switzerland's federal institutions are:
A bicameral legislature the Federal Assembly; A collegial executive of seven members the Federal Council; and A judiciary consisting of a single, regular court, the Federal Tribunal, in Lausanne and special military and administrative courts. The Federal Insurance Tribunal is an independent division for social security.

    Government
    The federal constitution, adopted in 1848 and revised in 1874, assigns specified functions, notably communications, foreign relations, and tariffs, to the confederation, leaving the cantons sovereign in other respects. There is universal male suffrage; women were granted (by a referendum in 1971) the vote in federal elections and may vote in most cantonal and local elections. In a 1981 plebiscite, measures were approved granting equal legal and economic rights for men and women. A major revision of the constitution in 1999 abolished the gold standard for the Swiss franc, established the right to strike, and guaranteed equal opportunities for those with disabilities. A council of states (two members from each canton, one from each half canton) and a 200-member national council (whose members are directly elected every four years) together form the federal assembly. The chief executive, or federal council, is composed of seven members (elected for four years by the federal assembly) and includes the president of the confederation (elected by the federal assembly annually).

    The federated republic of Switzerland is composed of 23 cantons, or 20 cantons and six half-cantons. The last canton to be established was Jura in 1979. The Swiss government is divided into three branches: the Federal Council (executive); the Federal Assembly, or Parliament (legislative); and the Federal Tribunal (judicial), which sits in Lausanne. The Federal Council consists of seven members, who are each elected for four-years terms. They preside over seven government departments; it includes an annually elected president, who serves both as head of government and as Switzerland's chief of state. The Parliament is composed of two chambers. The two chambers are the Council of States and the National Council. The Council of States has 44 member who serve for three to four years, and the National Council has 200 members who are elected every four years. The Swiss government is composed of four main political partiesthe Social Democratic, the Radical Democratic, Christian Democratic, and the Swiss People's parties which hold about 80% of the seats in both houses of the Parliament. Switzerland is known to have the oldest continuous democracy in Europe. Federal legislature finally granted the Swiss women the right to vote in 1971. This was then followed by the equl rights amendment to the constitution in 1981 and by the extension of equal marriage rights to women in 1985. On March 3, 1991 a national referendum was approved by a wide margin to lower the voting from 21 to 18 years of age.
