Description
When most people think of Switzerland, they think of a small country embedded in the Alps that makes fine chocolates and is the home of the cuckoo clock.
They have been neutral in European conflicts for almost 500 years, and they serve as the headquarters for several international organizations.
Yet, it was the Swiss who, during the Renaissance, were some of the most feared and in-demand mercenary fighters in Europe.
Learn more about Swiss mercenaries and how they instilled fear into Europeans on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
