Bliss in Swiss by: Brandon Finn

The roof of Europe o Switzerland is sometimes called the roof of Europe because of there towering Swiss alps, that allow people there to enjoy the activity of skiing. o The Swiss alps cover more then half the country. o Because of all the mountain terrain it limits people to farm and grow crops. o Most of there water is provided by the Swiss alps which flow into 5 key rivers: Rhine, Rhone, Po, Adige, and Panicle. o Because of this it allows lots of people to have boating jobs.

Cool Catholics More then half of the people are Catholics{65%} There is a very small Jewish majority also{25%}. o There common languages spoken there are German, French, Italian, and Romansch. o Each city, state… has the right to choose what language they will use every year. And this makes all street signs or directions from how to get some to even directions to a math problem in your school book that general language.

Taking a life There is a guy named Michael Winner who is wanted people to take away the law of not being able to take your own life. He has 18 months to live and is 76 years old, due to cancer. And the Switzerland people are supporting his theory. The U.S. is not very happy because they think that lots of people make very stupid mistakes and will be very careless if they happen to let this law go. And now some people are starting to rethink about the thought of taking a life.

Taking a life I support Michael Winner’s thought because I think your responsible for yourself and you’re the one who makes your own choices that’s why I also think u should be at least 23 and up in order to be able to take your own life.

Wealthy Ones o Switzerland is a very developed country and have high standers of living. o They have a very high per capita GDP at 45,300 and GDP growth rate at 0.8%. o And they only have a poverty rate at 6.9% compared to the U.S. at 15% also Switzerland has a unemployment rate of only 3% while the U.S. has 9% o Even better there prices for things are even going down at almost one percent. o Last urban people normally will live in three bedroom apartments,and tend to keep them very nice and neat.

Conclusion Switzerland is a very nice country based on my opinion and research, a place that I would like to go or visit on a vacation. Because I like skiing and they seem very rich, clean, and have a safe environment.
