A nation with a tortured history in the heart of Europe where governmental support of the arts and artists is a given. Germany's closest friend and ally is France (whose armies, under Napoleon, raped and pillaged their way across the Rhine between 1805 and 1806). Traditionally both a Roman Catholic and a Lutheran country, depending on the region, Germany now has the fastest-growing Jewish population in the world. The Austrians are ethnic Germans (Austria was historically the most powerful German state until its defeat by Prussia in 1866); the Swiss are not.
If you give a "thumbs-down" to this entry on Germany, then you are woefully uninformed.

Many fascist people still think that Germany means National socialism, but that is absolutely WRONG! It's 2005 now, so the 2nd world war ended 60 years ago. The German executed all "Nazis" that hadn't left Europe to America in 1945 and 1946. The German people still have to repent for those who made them agree to the Nazi regiem. They killed 6 millions Jews in many KZ's all over Central Europe. And in addition: Adolf Hitler wasn't German but AUSTRIAN !!! He was born in Branau am Inn in Austria. I bet you didn't know.
There is a proverb in Germany:
"Nationalstolz ist in Deutschland gerade darum so schlimm, da es nichts gibt auf das man stolz sein kΓΆnnte."
America killed until now 12 millions native Americans, 320.000 Japanese people in 3 days without getting accused for it, they kidnapped 0,5 millions Africans which became slaves in America. It attacks any country every 5th year. So what?

Like most Americans I have ancestry, as well as living family in Germany: cousins, aunts, uncles, etc.
Germany is a country that most Americans respect and admire, despite what a few idiots before me have written. A country of great inventors, great poets, great philosophers, great composers. Germany has contributed so much to the culture of Western civilization. It's a shame that a few idiots in 1933 ruined such a beautiful land.
Germany also has VERY SEXY WOMEN! I wish I could have sex with all the women in Germany--including my cousin's wife. In fact, ESPECIALLY my cousin's wife!
Germany is also a country where rap music has become so popular among the youth, there is even a neo-Nazi rap group there. I mean, come on, a neo-Nazi RAP GROUP!!!!
Smart American: Germany is cool.
Smart American #2: Indeed.
