My closest friend was born in Germany, so I have at least some fondness for the place.

From my travels around the world, I've come to the conclusion that people are people, no matter where they're from, what their culture is like, or what their history has been. A few are good, some are bad, most are somewhere in the middle. I haven't been there personally, but I suspect it's just as true there as anywhere else.

Germany is home to one of the worlds biggest Metal festivals (Wacken Open Air). You bet your ass I like Germany. Plus, they are responsible for some very awesome Metal bands as well.

Hell yeah!

I've taken German for two years now, and I've always had a burning desire to go visit the country. Hoping to make that a reality in the next year or so.

What's not to love about Germany? They've given the world delicious food and yummy beer!

Besides, it's my heritage, so I can't hate on my fellow krauts. Would love to live there.

What are you thinking about germans?
This is...an incredibly random question laced with uncomfortable undertones. Do you not like Germans or something? Have they done something to you?

I've spent many holidays there because they have nice cities and landscapes I can't find here in the Netherlands.

Pretty nice place, even if they have some serious issues with violent extreme-left groups they need to adress.
That´s violent EXTREME RIGHT groups!

the difference:
left wing violence is beating up Neo Nazies and demonstrating against the nuclear power plant mafia and other goverment activities that cater to the lobbyists and not to the people.

right wing violence is burning down immmigration asylums and their inhabitants beating up homeless people and smearing Hakenkreuz-Symbols on jewish graveyards is their least crime.

Being a FASCHIST is not an attitude - it´s a crime.

I was kinda born there. So I feel I can't be entirely objective in this poll. They are really ahead of pretty much everyone else when it comes to "green" urban planning, though so I love Germany both personally and professionally.

Really? This is really a question? Do you hate Germany for one thing some insane person did 70 years ago. You may not have said it but thats what we are thinking.

Germany has some of the best Doctors, Great food and is one of the most Eco friendly countries in the world. Hell they have a city that uses no fossil fuels.

Just because one man did something bad in the past doesn't mean anything. George Washington tried to take over Canada when both countries were still young and we don't hate USA

Well, they make good cars (and I'd love to try the Autobahn), but never having been there, I can't fairly say.

You mean Germany? The country with zero-tolerance for drunk drivers, the country that teaches the hell out of the war that made them infamous instead of denying it ever occurred?

Love them Krauts.
I've talked to my German teacher once and he said that WW1 and WW2 is omitted in German schools. The wars is of coarse a uncomfortable topic to Germans.

I probaly have spend more time in history and polittics and social studies regarding the wars, the holocaust, and everything that came from that then on math. (some classes even went 200 miles to the Tank museum. lol) We collectivly invaded the privacy of a thirteen year old girl. We analysed every freakin' speech Hitler held.

Your teacher is wrong.


OT: I like Germany. It's beautiful. If I could just leave all the lower class people out. And the politics. Our politics are really, really dumb.

What's good for the Russian is death to the German.

Sorry, I like Germany and Germans and all, but German spotless efficiency is essentially the opposite of what draws me to a place.
