How has been Germany so succesful troughout history...
Racial superiority
ARBEIT
From 1918 German economy was absolute shite. Nazis didn't change much by investing everybody on the military (Despite what their propaganda said). Things went up for Germans after they starter exploiting conquered lands.
After 1945 they recieved US money, which they invested to recover. They didn't had much of opponents on European market, France and Britain suffered decolonisation while eastern Europe was under Soviet subjection
ORDNUNG
>Unsatisfactory colonial power
>Loses both world wars
>Loses half of country
>Reunite only because the USSR grew weak
>Least patriotic nation in Europe
You just prove my point about it being strange that they are the most succesful country in europe.
Yet we are closer to a diplomatic unification of Europe than any country was ever.
Because its big.
>Least patriotic nation in Europe
Have you been to Sweden?
What do you mean by this?
Do you think that germany has led the creation of the european union?
Because that is wrong.
>Yet we are closer to a diplomatic unification of Europe than any country was ever.
It was the CIA that made Europe a thing
You're just America's puppet
they just industrialized, not a biggy, various factors I guess
1: direct contact with european trade networks
2: flat temperate plains, high rainfall, not too cold, good for grain
3: navigable rivers short distance from the coast to the north, good places for centers of commerce, population and manufacturing
4: the abundant ruhr and saar coalfields
Have you?
Social Market Economy
France stopped breeding properly after the napoleonic wars. That and better geography for industrialization.
Strong work ethic
You wish, Jean-Claude
after ww2 everything was destroyed so germany build everything from scratch with the help of america to stop communism overtaking europe.
Other countries like Great Britain that started the industrial revolution still had their old shit to work with and kept that.
A lot of new companies emerged in germany and the old ones made a lot of money because everything was needed and everyone wanted to rebuild the country.
Germany was pretty much an irrelevant backwater until the late 19th century.
German Autism
Teutonic autism. I'm in Germany and most people who aren't old seem autistic. They never look at each other or speak unless they are friends. They also speak their language in a really autistic way
>Tschulli!
>Kool! (they pronounce it like Cooooooool all the time)
>Ich bin glücklich!
>playing simulation games about working after they work (this is real not a meme)
>if drunk they act like latinos
>dance like shit
That said it's a great country and most of them follow the Prussian Virtues.
The old people become less autistic since they know being antisocial is bad.
Many people
Why Germany always starting autistic wars and sabotage itself at every opportunity?
Geographic disposition. Germany is a major hub right in the middle of Europe and the Germanosphere contains the largest European population.
Work made them free
all work and no play
Honestly I prefer this to America. Also American eye contact norms are bullshit. You have to look like them in eye but with just the right amount of blinking. Too little blinking and they think you want to rape and murder the,. Too much blinking and you look retarded.
