From The Third Man , “In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.”

They just exported their violence in mercenary armies. Plus all the religious wars.

Plus their worst contribution to mankind, Nestle.
