I am going to defer the decision on that one, to one of our friends from Germany they may disagree.. Can we include the Swiss as well then..their basically German's who make chocolate and cuckoo clocks ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patsycat Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) No, it is the Austrians who make the cookoo clocks. Living in Switzerland can actually be fun. When asked if i speak Swiss, or Swedish or whether Swaziland gets hot in the Summer. No no and i don't know. Germany, don't know much about it. My brother lives in Munich and that's quite nice. Skating on the frozen river, the beer etc. And the German people i know are just normal people like you and me. Nothing odd about them at all.

Popular Post tonytigerbkk Posted March 25, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2015 Oh lord, where to start CC? Quite a few good suggestions have been put forward but I have added a few of my own. The Germans are a very proud race and with good cause to be. Apart from a few small hiccups in their history (and all major nations have these), we owe a lot to the German race. Now if you will only develop a sense of humour and stop showing Freddie Frinton (Der 90. Geburtstag) every Christmas, maybe you will be classed as a great nation. My list: Johann Sebastian Bach Anne Frank Prince Albert Erich von Manstein (pure genius) Johannes Brahms Richard Wagner Franz Beckenbauer Gerd Muller Albert Einstein Karl Benz Rudolf Diesel Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit Heinrich Hertz Michael Schumacher 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanBBK Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Not an easy question. There are the likes of Karl Benz, Gottlieb Daimler, Otto Lillienthal, Ferdinand Porsche, Robert Bosch, Albert Einstein, Konrad Zuse, Nikolaus Otto, Rudolf Diesel, Manfred von Ardenne, Alexander von Humboldt, Friedrich Schiller, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Sebastian Bach, Richard Wagner, Immanuel Kant, Werner von Siemens, Martin Luther and so many more. However my vote goes to Franz Beckenbauer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
