Is the holocust/WW2 beat into your heads in school? Does anyone ever still stereotype a German as some Nazi or something? What do you think about Austria? When I was there most everyone and all my family thought poorly of the Germans. It was mostly friendly. Just that there were German tourist everywhere and that they were obnoxious, loud, etc. How are the Austria/German relations? What were you taught about the relations during the World Wars and post World Wars, etc. I know you had the Austro Hungarian Empire which was freaking massive. My grandfather was actually in the Austrian Militery pre-WW2. Then Austria got annexed by Germany and he survived about 2 years in the war. Honestly any info about the above would be great. How long is your military term? Is it not something like 3 years? Do girls have to do it or anything similar? Is there a opt out in Austria where you can do civil service like work in a hospital or ambulance? Aside from Austria how many other countries in Europe still require this? How was your experience doing all this? Do you consider Bavaria a part of Germany or should they gently caress off and make their own country? That all being said Germans are rad and Berlin is amazing.

Going on about Bavaria. Has it always been part of Germany? I know their traditions and such are more of Austrian root. Which I guess can be argued. But I was always told they were more Austrian than German. Or hell, their own country. Is it like Texas compared to the US? That wacky place that wants to succeed? Although I am sure it is much more awesome. Only example I could think of Does your military have any foreign involvement? How do you feel about the illegal immigration? Lots of Turkish there.
