Question: How did the EU rank the economy of the country whose border with the country where Aschenbrodel's composer was a citizen is formed by the Rhine?

since the peace of westphalia, the upper rhine formed a contentious border between france and germany. establishing "natural borders" on the rhine was a long-term goal of french foreign policy, since the middle ages, though the language border was – and is – far more to the west. french leaders, such as louis xiv and napoleon bonaparte, tried with varying degrees of success to annex lands west of the rhine. the confederation of the rhine was established by napoleon, as a french client state, in 1806 and lasted until 1814, during which time it served as a significant source of resources and military manpower for the first french empire. in 1840, the rhine crisis, prompted by french prime minister adolphe thiers's desire to reinstate the rhine as a natural border, led to a diplomatic crisis and a wave of nationalism in germany. <SEP> the rhine emerges from lake constance, flows generally westward, as the hochrhein, passes the rhine falls, and is joined by its major tributary, the river aare. the aare more than doubles the rhine's water discharge, to an average of nearly 1,000 m3/s (35,000 cu ft/s), and provides more than a fifth of the discharge at the dutch border. the aare also contains the waters from the 4,274 m (14,022 ft) summit of finsteraarhorn, the highest point of the rhine basin. the rhine roughly forms the german-swiss border from lake constance with the exceptions of the canton of schaffhausen and parts of the cantons of zürich and basel-stadt, until it turns north at the so-called rhine knee at basel, leaving switzerland. <SEP> Ziehrer, among others. The Vienna Walzer Orchestra (German: Wiener Walzer Orchester) is a chamber orchestra based in Vienna, Austria that specializes in traditional Viennese waltzes, polkas, marches and operetta arias from composers such as: J. Strauss II, F. Lehár, C.M. Their concerts also always include performances by ballet dancers and opera singers. <SEP> He had written all the principal parts of the ballet, and was intending to fill in the orchestration as time permitted. Aschenbrödel ("Cinderella") is a ballet written by Johann Strauss II. However, Strauss died in 1899, and it was finished by composer Josef Bayer in 1900. <SEP> Near Tamins-Reichenau the Anterior Rhine and the Posterior Rhine join and form the Rhine. The Alpine Rhine begins in the most western part of the Swiss canton of Graubünden, and later forms the border between Switzerland to the West and Liechtenstein and later Austria to the East. The river makes a distinctive turn to the north near Chur. This section is nearly 86 km long, and descends from a height of 599 m to 396 m. It flows through a wide glacial alpine valley known as the Rhine Valley (German: Rheintal). Near Sargans a natural dam, only a few metres high, prevents it from flowing into the open Seeztal valley and then through Lake Walen and Lake Zurich into the river Aare. <SEP> For much of the 20th century, Switzerland was the wealthiest country in Europe by a considerable margin (by GDP – per capita). The World Economic Forum's Global Competitiveness Report currently ranks Switzerland's economy as the most competitive in the world, while ranked by the European Union as Europe's most innovative country. In 2007 the gross median household income in Switzerland was an estimated 137,094 USD at Purchasing power parity while the median income was 95,824 USD. Switzerland also has one of the world's largest account balances as a percentage of GDP.
