Switzerland has very little conflict between its ethnic groups like the US. Serbs, Croats, Bosnians, and Albanians used to be one country called Yugoslavia.

Christianity is number one in the Middle East. Islam has two sects called Sunnis and Shiites. Jerusalem is the holy site of Jews, Christians and Muslims. Christians fought each other in Northern Ireland in 1970. EU stands for European Union. UN stands for United Nation. OPEC stands for Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
