Germany: Difference between revisions

Germany is a parliamentary federal republic of sixteen states (Bundesländer). The capital city and seat of government is Berlin. As a nation-state, the country was unified amidst the Franco-Prussian War in 1871 by Otto von Bismark. After its defeat in [[World War II]] Germany was divided into two sections, East Germany and West Germany. East Germany was communist, and was controlled by the Soviet Union, and called the ''Deutsche Demokratische Republik'', or the DDR. West was a Republic, and controlled  by the allies of [[World War II]], and called ''Westdeutschland''. The two sides became reunified in 1990. Nearly three centuries in the future, during the Interplanetary War, the German colonies in the Jovian Moons, under the control of the the Freiden, became a major war zone during the Jovian Moons Campaign. It was the place where [[CQB]] armor was researched and made. It's also more than likely that many Germans were UNSC marines.
