Germany is a wealthy country, whose people are gererally regarded as hard working, determined and efficient. This view stems in no small part from the country’s industrial might and the relatively smooth functioning of it’s economy.
This impression however overlooks substantial aspects of Germany and German culture such as it’s contribution to art, music, it’s amazing scenery an regional contrasts.
Contemporary Germany has over the last 50 years developed into a truly multicultural society and melting pot of religions and ethnic groups from around the world. Over 7 million of Germany’s inhabitants are in fact immigrants. Almost every town has a selection of Italian, Chinese, Greek and Turkish restaurants and cafes, testifying to the multi-ethnicity of it’s population.
