Their structure of government is interesting. It consist of confederation, cantons, and communes with different amount of people, but they share the power (to the best of my knowledge) equally despite how many people are in each group. Its citizens vote on issues directly and consistently vs our midterm and every four year structure, or our need to call every single government official to convince them on an issue. I’ve always valued their stance on firm neutrality and privacy, but haven’t really done more research to confirm if it exists as they say it does.

You’re mostly right on a superficial level. However, I’d like to correct the statement that „power is shared equally among groups regardless of their size“. In reality, executive and legislative power is generally distributed proportionally based on voting strength.
