Basel was a canton of Switzerland that was in existence between 1501 and 1833, when it was split into the two half-cantons of Basel-City and Basel-Country.[1]
- ^ The term "half-canton" refers to the constitutional status of these entities during 1848–1999. Since 1999, they are officially "cantons" with "half-vote" in the Council of States (je eine halbe Standesstimme, Swiss Constitution of 1999, paragraph 142.4)
