Germany (German: Deutschland), officially the German Confederation (German: Deutscher Bund), is a

Various Germanic tribes have inhabited the northern parts of modern Germany since classical antiquity. A region named Germania was documented before AD 100. In the 10th century, German territories formed a central part of the Holy Roman Empire. During the 16th century, northern German regions became the centre of the Protestant Reformation. During the Napoleonic Wars, Napoleon invaded the Holy Roman Empire and established the Confederation of the Rhine and several other puppet states, although they would initially collapse after Napoleon's loss. However, the idea of German unity arose, and after after the 1848 revolutions the German Confederation was borned.

After colonial expansions in the late 19th century, it was thrown against the Allied powers in the Great War, and ultimately lost, resulting in the foundation of a constitutional monarchy. In the 1920s, a financial crisis struck the country, and only worsened with the Great Depression in the early 1930s. Ultimately, the dissatisfaction with the government led to the election of Joseph Goebbels in 1937, leading to the outbreak of World War 2 in 1940. Following its loss in the conflict, Germany was slipted into West Germany (Frankfurt), East Germany (Berlin), and South Germany (Vienna)
