GENERAL INFO (Jump to Diary) Germany is actually rightfully named Federal Republic of Germany, and it is made up by sixteen constituent states, covering an area of 357,021 square kilometres. It is a federal, parliamentary, representative democratic republic with 82 million inhabitants. 60% are Christians, 35% have no religion while Muslims makeup around 4% and the rest is miner groups of Jews, Buddhists and Hindi. The currency is Euro, worth 7,46 Danish Krone. They have quite some of them as the GDP is around 3,5 trillion US$. The
climate varieties from north to south and into the mountains, but it is
generally a temperate seasonal climate, making the summers the best
time to visit, unless you are a passionate skier. I have seen quit some of Germany before, but
mainly the nurseries and botanical gardens. This time, I will pass bye some
of the other interesting sights, mainly in the north-eastern and
south-eastern regions. See the plan on the Map-Page. |
