Former Swiss Protected Territories
and Possessions to 1803
Note: The territorial
evolution of Switzerland occurred primarily with the
acquisition of territory by the historical cantons of
the Old Swiss Confederacy and its close associates.
This gradual expansion took place in two phases, the
growth from the medieval Founding Cantons to the
"Eight Cantons" during 1332–1353, and the expansion to
the "Thirteen Cantons" of the pre-Reformation period
during 1481–1513.
The Swiss Confederation until 1798 consisted in
addition to (a) sovereign full members (Stand/canton),
and (b) associate members (Zugewandter Ort/pays
allié), also of (c) the protected lands (Schutzverwandter
Ort/pays protégé) of the Swiss Confederation who
had entered into treaties of protection with members
of the Confederation and were self-governing, and (d)
common possessions (Gemeine Herrschaft/bailliages
communs), who were jointly administered by and
directly subject to several members of the
Confederation. This page separately records the latter
two.
There were also other self-governing
territories during the 18th century in the territory
of modern Switzerland, as well as constituent
self-governing communities of the Three Leagues of
Graubünden and of Valais, they are recorded under (c)
except the communities of the Three Leagues, and there
were also possessions of individual members of the
Confederation, but they were not treated as separate
entities by the Confederation and are only partially
dealt in this record, under (d).
Swiss Protected Territories and other Self-governing Territories
Note: Recorded here are (a) the protected lands (Schutzverwandter Ort/pays protégé) of the Swiss Confederation who had entered into treaties of protection with members of the Confederation and were self-governing, and (b) two other self-governing territories during the 18th century in the territory of modern Switzerland, as well as the constituent self-governing communities (Sieben Zenden/sept dizains) of Valais. The constituent self-governing communities of the Three Leagues of the Drei Bünde are not currently recorded.

Note: until the 15th century the area was divided into 3 parts called tiers, each tiers had its own local government, but Rarogne/Raron always appointed the Banneret and Mörel the Captain (military commander) of the Dizains/Zehenden.
| Map of Rarogne (Raron) |
Capital: Rarogne (Raron) | Population: 4,000 (1787) |
.... Area is part of Bishopric of Sion/Sitten:

et Filet, Goppisberg, Greich et Ried-Mörel, Grengiols, Bister,
Betten, Martisberg et Bitsch. It was a county in the 11th cent.
under suzerainty of Savoy. From 1224 it was fully under the Bishop
of Sion/Sitten who made it a fief at end of 13th cent. It becomes
a Majory which at first is hereditary ans is later elective.
+ Tiers of Rarogne/Raron (or Middle Tiers)- it was composed of
the communes of d'Ausserberg, Bürchen, Raron and Unterbäch
(without Holz). First mentioned in the 12th cent. as part
of Bishopric of Sion/Sitten, with a hereditary Majory to 1508
