The country is a tightly controlled dependent US colony and it’s hard to see that changing in the near future Germany is a political void in the center of Europe, even though it contributes significantly to the global economy and is influential in trade.

How the successes of the far right and far left will affect politics in the EU’s most powerful state The elephant in the room has gotten bigger. There’s yet more anxiety in Germany after the non-systemic parties (often dismissed as ‘populists’) scored significant electoral successes in two eastern states over the weekend. ‘Alternative for Germany’ (AFD) won the contest in Thuringia and finished just behind the establishment ...
... UK’s position is still unclear, but there are suspicions that its decision to leave the European Union may have been a means to have access to direct control over the entire Western bloc, rather than to pursue an independent role in global affairs. Germany, on the other hand, appears to be the clear winner in intra-European competition, having rather successfully navigated economic challenges while balancing the preservation of its industrial base.

... so-called “moose test” and stay in balance? This is exactly what we need: endurance, patience, composure and, last but not least, a necessary dose of humor. The Berlin Wall has fallen and today firewalls are being diligently erected once again: Germany was united and now it is being divided anew at every turn.

... de-academic.com Located on the imperial border, Nimmersatt was the former German Empire’s most northeastern spot and was last in German hands in 1945.[1] Like Nimmersatt, there are many seemingly vanished places and landscapes in historic eastern Germany.

... developments around Ukraine, but did not lead to satisfactory results for the EU. Given that the pan-European line is acquiring a distinct protective character, it could be amended by the member states that are the stakeholders of the dialogue, primarily Germany. The government of Olaf Scholz was destined to make unplanned strategic decisions regarding all the main partners outside the EU — the USA, Russia and China. This could have fundamental consequences for European-Chinese relations. The role of ...
