States of the Confederation[Zoomed in, with labels]

Note: Burgenland (grey-blue region east of Austria) is a special administrative region with shared condominium between the Swiss Confederation (which has traditionally claimed German-majority Eisenstadt) and the Kingdom of Hungary (which has historically claimed Magyar-majority Sopron). As such, they lack full state rights and are not considered a full constituent of the Confederation.

Presidents of the Federal Council.

Executive power in the Confederation split between all seven cabinet powers, though one individual is elected by the Council of States to serve in a symbolic capacity as President. While initially only intended to serve one year on a rotating basis, the necessity of a strong executive to oversee Swiss expansionism led to a more traditional 4 year term (one term limit).
