3. Germany is located in
western Europe,
bordering the North
Sea between France
and Poland.
Germany shares limits with Denmark
and the Baltic Sea (north), Poland and
the Czech Republic (east), Austria
(southeast), Switzerland (south),
France (southwest), Luxembourg,
Belgium, and the Netherlands (west),
and the North Sea (northwest)
4. Germany has a total area of
357,021 km sq (137,847 mi
sq).
5. Germany has many natural
resources. They would include
timber, construction materials,
sale, uranium, salt, nickel,
copper, natural gas, iron ore, coal
and lignite.
6. Germany's
climate is
moderate and has
generally no
longer periods of
cold or hot
weather.
9. Germany ended 2013 with a
population of 80,621,788
people, which represents a
decrease of 1,398,790 people
compared to 2012
10. The answer to this in unclear to most Europeans.
Mostly they were the Celts. But they were all nomadic, and
included the Vandals, The Goths, The Visigoths, The
Franks, The Huns, The Mongols, etc.
11. Christianity is the largest
religion in Germany with 62%
of the total population
17. • In the 19th century, Germany was
not a unified country, what made
the country have much conflicts
and have lot of poverty.
• Adolf Hitler was a German
dictator, who led the Reichstag
elections.
He led the German army to erase
the Jews from the earth surface.
He killed more than 27 million
soldiers and 23 million civilians.
17 million Jews were killed, 8
million Poles, 1.5 million political
dissidents. 500,000 Gypsies, 300,000
disabled and 2,000 Jehovah's
Witnesses died by Nazi troops.
18. The sports in Germany are like in any other
countries, but they have a great football
team, so good they won the world cup many
times like 2014.

20. The Alpine Ibex is a species of wild goat that lives in
the mountains of the European Alps. Ibexes are
strictly herbivorous and survive on a diet of grass,
moss, flowers, leaves and twigs. If leaves and shoots
are out of reach, Ibexes often stand on their rear
legs to reach this food.
21. The Hedgehog populations is finally
recovering a bit. These sweet animals are out
mostly at night, and you may even find one
wandering in your yard. A lot of Hedgehogs
find a sad end on the street, since they roll
up and are no match for a car tire.
22. Mouflon have a red-brown short-haired coat
with a dark back-stripe, light colored saddle
patch, ‘socks’ and under parts. The males are
horned; some females are horned while
others lack horns. The horn is curved in
almost one full revolution (up to 85 cm).
Mouflon have a shoulder height of about 0.9
meters and a body weight of 50 kg (males)
and 35 kg (females).They were successfully
introduced into continental Europe.
23. This species is found throughout the Old
World, apparently breeding where suitable
localities are to be found in many European
countries, although it no longer breeds in
southwestern Europe. Eastwards it extends
across Asia to China. In North America there
are both feral domestic geese, which are
similar to graylags, and occasional vagrants
24. The Mallard, or Wild duck, probably the
best-known and most recognizable of all
ducks, is a dabbling duck which breeds
throughout the temperate and sub-tropical
America, Europe, Asia, New Zealand and
Australia.The male birds have a bright green
head, while the female’s is light brown. The
mallard lives in wetlands, eats water plants,
and is gregarious. It is also migratory. The
mallard is the ancestor of all domestic
ducks..
25. Although moles burrow, some species are
semi-aquatic. Moles have cylindrical bodies
covered in fur while the ears are generally
not visible. They have small or covered eyes
and can probably still tell night from day,
although they are otherwise blind. Moles eat
small invertebrates living underground.
Moles can be found in most parts of North
America, Asia, and Europe.
26. These can be found along the rivers where
the waters run slow or lakes with swampy
edges. They almost look like a mix between a
beaver and guinea pig.
27. German Squirrels are red and have tiny
bushels on their ears, sometimes you can
even see a black one. They will even come
down in the Winter to plunder your bird
feeders.
28. Very common here. You will see hares all
through the fields, they are similar to rabbits
but they are bigger and thinner
29. The chamois is native to mountains in
Europe, including the Carpathian
Mountains of Romania, the European Alps,
the TatraMountains, the Balkans, parts of
Turkey, and the Caucasus. Some subspecies
of chamois are strictly protected in the EU
under the European Habitats Directive
