Answer:

Transportation has become much faster, cheaper, and safer through the tunnel built by the Swiss.

Explanation:

The Alps are a natural barrier that separtes the Apennine Peninsula from the  Balkan Peninsula, Central Europe, and Western Europe. Even though these are the highest and most massive mountains in Europe, the transportation infrastructure has been of very high quality, mainly because all countries that have a share of the Alps are well-developed ones. Despite this, transportation has been slow, expensive, and risky through the Alps.

This all has changed with the construction of the longest tunnel in the world built by the Swiss. This tunnel has cut the distance significantly between the countries. Transportation has become much faster and with it much cheaper, so it has been of great economical importance. Last but not least, all of the dangers that the Alps bring to transportation on the surface infrastructure are not present in the tunnel, so safety is not an issue.

Why is tidal wave a bad name for an enormous wave generated by an earthquake
Andreas93 [3]
Hi. "Tidal wave" suggests a wave associated with the ebbs and flows related to the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun. These rises and falls relative to mean sea level are periodic and easily predictable. But the enormous wave generated by an earthquake is probably even less easy to predict than an earthquake and of no regular (that is, periodic) recurrence that anyone knows of. But I think "tsunami" is not too bad a name for such earthquake-generated waves as tsunami does not suggest any strong link with the relative positions of the earth, moon and sun.
