Colonialism in Switzerland

Colonialism in Switzerland refers to the historical involvement of Switzerland and Swiss citizens in European colonialism, despite Switzerland never possessing formal colonies of its own. While Switzerland maintained official neutrality and did not establish overseas territories, Swiss individuals, companies, and investors participated extensively in colonial enterprises, including the Atlantic slave trade, plantation slavery, and colonial commerce from the 17th to the 20th centuries.
