Canton of Zurich

Switzerland

Canton of Zurich connects to 3757 places across 13 topics through 55 Bunkabop connections, with government and religion forming the two dominant threads. Connections to Canton of Bern and Canton of Schwyz reflect deep Swiss federal ties. By the 13th century, the territory of Zürichgau was divided between the Habsburgs and the Kyburgers. In 1519, Zwingli's pastorship at the Grossmünster made Zurich a Protestant canton, a shift that runs through many of its connections to neighboring Swiss regions.
