Did you know............?

I just wanted to post a few facts about Germany. There are a few fun ones, and very interesting... if you ask me anyway! =)



Did you know....


: Germany is only slightly smaller than the state of Montana?

:You would have to try one type of Germany bread each and every day for almost a year to be able to taste them all. There are over 300 types of German Bread!



:Dogs are treated like Kings in Germany. They are permitted into restaurants and stores. Even have their own pools.



:Germans are the second largest beer consumers in the world. (Aside from the Irish of course)



:Gummy bears were invented by a German.

 
:Germany has over 400 zoos. The most in the world.


:Holocaust Denial is a crime in Germany.


: Another crime in Germany, punishable by fine, is "flipping someone the bird."

:You have to bring your own shopping bag when going out to shop. If you don't, they will sometimes have them to purchase.

:Tax in Germany is 19%!!!!!!

: Unlike many think, we drive on the same side of the road where we're headed as we do in the states!

: Our gas will be rationed!

:American cordless phones are illegal in Germany. They interfere with the emergency lines.

:and while we're on that subject...... you dial 211 for emergency services instead of 911.


That's all for today! Hope you enjoyed your history lesson!
