Transnational Issues Liechtenstein Introduction Top of Page Background: The Principality of Liechtenstein was established within the Holy Roman Empire in 1719; it became a sovereign state in 1806. Until the end of World War I, it was closely tied to Austria, but the economic devastation caused by that conflict forced Liechtenstein to conclude a customs and monetary union with Switzerland. Since World War II (in which Liechtenstein remained neutral) the country's low taxes have spurred outstanding economic growth. However, shortcomings in banking regulatory oversight have resulted in concerns about the use of the financial institutions for money laundering.

Extractions: History: The last remnant of the Holy Roman Empire, the pocket-sized Principality of Liechtenstein is a prosperous independent hereditary monarchy. Liechtensteins ruler of 51 years, until his death in November 1989, was His Highness Franz Joseph II. His son and heir, Prince Hans Adam (now His Highness Hans Adam II) was granted all the Regencys executive powers in 1984. The country is united with Switzerland in a Customs Union and represented by Switzerland abroad. The population shares German-Swiss traditions, values, social courtesies and behaviour, but remains proud of its independent status. From 1928 until 1970, the Progressive Citizens Party (FPB) was the dominant political party in the country before the Fatherland Party (VU) took power in the 1970 election. The VU won the next four Landtag elections, including the 1986 poll at which women (who had been debarred from voting until 1984) were able to participate for the first time. However, the FPB were returned to power at the most recent poll in February 2001 under the leadership of Otmar Hasler. As a member of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), Liechtenstein has joined the European Economic Area (EEA), creating a free trade area from the combined membership of the European Union and EFTA. A referendum on the issue in December 1992 produced a 56 per cent vote in favour of the EEA; another referendum in April 1995 ratified the terms and Liechtenstein joined the EEA the following month.
