The German Reich annexed Austria because they were running out of money from their massive rearmament program and the pretext that Austria and Germany are basically Germans (that is a very very oversimplified view). So why didn’t Hitler annex switzerland too as the majority of people spoke German and Hitler could have used this as a pretext?

no no what I mean is why didn’t hitler try persuade switzerland to join him like austria. As far as I know the nazis lead a coup after which austria voted to join germany. Why didn’t Hitler try the same?

Never mind I got it.
