Germany: A Snapshot

Ever since 1918 Germany has been the sick heart of a sick Continent. Its first thrombosis occurred in 1933, followed by major surgery in 1945.

The German experience of division could be compared to an American’s waking up one day to discover that his country ended at the Mississippi; that the area between “the Father of Rivers” and the Rockies had become a Japanese protectorate, and the Far West a Japanese colony; while the remaining free East depended desperately upon the support of the United States of Europe.
