8/8 John, why is the Swiss domain suffix .ch? What was wrong with .sw? \_ Found the answer myself, sorry: "Switzerland is also known as "Confoederatio Helvetica", therefore the abbreviation CH. "Confoederatio" stands for "confederation", "Helvetica" derives from the Latin word "Helvetier", the name of the people who lived in the area which became later Switzerland. http://www.about.ch |
www.about.ch Here you can find a lot of information about Switzerland, a small but well known country in the heart of Europe. While the author takes every effort to keep this information accurate and up to date, there is no guarantee for correctness.
