Switzerland gave us William Tell, the very first literary anti-government rebel. If we have forgotten that, it's because there's a vast conspiracy suppressing the collective memory.

There's also that wonderful Harry Lime "Renaissance versus the cuckoo clock" speech in The Third Man. (Talk about film noir!) No country, no speech.
