📜 The History of Continental Giants
ETH Zurich (Einstein's alma mater) and EPFL form the dual engines of Swiss innovation. In France, the creation of PSL University was a strategic merger to build a Parisian super-university capable of topping global rankings. LMU Munich and Karolinska Institute dominate central and northern European research, particularly in medicine.
