Germany is a parliamentary republic in West-Central Europe, and although it functions as one unified and sovereign state, it is actually comprised of 16 states that form a republic, much like the U.S. or Australia. It borders on Denmark, the Baltic Sea and the North Sea, Holland and Belgium to the west, France to the southwest, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein and Austria to the south, and the Czech Republic and Poland to the east. Its location, as well as the powers active in the region throughout history, have made Germany an economic, cultural and social superpower. It is currently considered the most powerful nation in Europe, its largest economy and fourth largest globally.
The capital Berlin, is again the nationwide capital after the reunification of East and West Germany. The official language is German but locals are generally also proficient in English. The population is 81.8 million. Its rich and complex history is closely entwined in the history of the European continent and of the entire world. Various iconic historical chapters of Germany’s past include the settlement of Germanic tribes in the region, the days of the Roman Empire there, the Prussian Empire, and of course World War I and II, both of which were initiated by Germany and shocked both the country and the rest of the world.
