Appenzell Innerrhoden


Appenzell Innerrhoden (German: [ˈapənˌtsɛl ˈɪnərˌroːdən] (listen); in English sometimes Appenzell Inner-Rhodes) is one of the 26 cantons forming the Swiss Confederation. It is composed of six districts. The seat of the government and parliament is Appenzell. It is traditionally considered a "half-canton", the other half being Appenzell Ausserrhoden.
Appenzell Innerrhoden is the smallest canton of Switzerland by population and the second smallest by area. It is located in the north east of the country. Together with the canton of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, it forms an enclave within the canton of St. Gallen. The canton is essentially located in the Alpine foothills of the Alpstein massif, culminating at the Säntis.
Appenzell Innerrhoden was part of the historical canton of Appenzell, which has been divided into Appenzell Ausserrhoden and Appenzell Innerrhoden since 1597 as a result of the Swiss Reformation.
