Curious George

Why are switzerland's initials "SUI"?

aeroman762002
the "offical" name of Switzerland is Confoederatio Helvetica (CH) but this is normally not used internationally. derived from the french word for Switzerland (Suisse), SUI has been taken as the offical abbreviation (due to the offical language french used at the olympic games).
Switzerland has four offical languages, German, French, Italian and Romansh.
Further information about Switzerland can be found here

whitediabless
Switzerland's initials are most currently CH (Confédération Hélvètique) and not SUI (but in French Switzerland is said Suisse so...)


kc_warpaint
Probably has a lot to do with the fact that "Suisse" is the proper spelling of Swiss in Switzerland.

because in most european countries, switzerland's name in the local language is "Suisse" the same way Germany is "Deutschland" and Norway is "Norge" and Sweden is "Svensk".
