“It’s also full of mainly Swiss people.”

The essential fact.

[alloysteel]

Ethnic purity is a major factor in keeping civil order. Look at the example of Japan which admits almost NO outsiders for citizenship, and has no internal Muslim problem at all.

Swiss ethnicity has been a binding factor in their non-involvement in international treaty agreements, regardless of the fact they have four different languages (French, Italian, a form of German, and Romesh, a form of Latin) spoken within their borders, plus most Swiss are at least somewhat conversant in English. Most of the families there have roots going back well before the formation of Charlemagne’s Holy Roman Empire, and some all the way back to the original Roman Empire itself.

Male descendants of Swiss families who have emigrated elsewhere are eligible to apply for Swiss citizenship, if they so choose to return. Citizenship is almost never granted to any others, though Switzerland has often harbored foreign nationals as legal residents, but it is abundantly clear that even these legal residents do not enjoy the same rights as the Swiss citizen.

Persons who are not formally accepted as legal residents are dealt with much more severely, from extended detention to forcible expulsion.
