(What do you think you know about Germany?)
In general, the public’s knowledge of Germany is concentrated on
the infamous Third Reich. Although the history of Hitler’s reign and its terrors
are known world-wide most people are unaware of other aspects of the country that
make Germany extremely important in world affairs, both in the past and present.
Throughout its existence, other countries have asked for Germany’s financial or
military aid. German empires, or reichs, beginning with the Holy Roman Empire
and culminating with Hitler’s rule have not only caused various historical
milestones, but vastly influenced its modern form of government. With the
largest economy in Europe and the second largest population, Germany is one of
the most prosperous countries in the world. Regardless of the challenges the country has faced throughout its troubled past, Germany has grown into a powerful country with a booming economy.
