Why is Germany the richest country in Europe?

Maybe you shouldn't lose all wars against us then.

>against us then
Yeah the dutch singlehandedly liberated europe lmao.

We single handedly defeated an invasion by England, France and Germany at the same time.
>In Dutch history, the year 1672 was known as the rampjaar, the "disaster year." That year, following the outbreak of the Franco-Dutch War and the Third Anglo-Dutch War, the Dutch Republic was simultaneously attacked by England, France, and the prince-bishops Bernhard von Galen, bishop of Münster, and Maximilian Henry of Bavaria, archbishop of Cologne.
>Despite the initial shock and successful invasion of the eastern Dutch Republic, the English, French and German forces were eventually driven back

And then proceeded to conquer England.
>In 1688, when faced with an English king who again seemed to side with the French, the Dutch mobilised their full resources in order to invade Britain and overthrow the Catholic Stuart Dynasty (the Glorious Revolution)

Hmmm tough words from the guys who didn't even last 5 days

Tough words from a country who's biggest empire lasted 5 years.

Yeah but his empire totally crushed you in mere 5 fcking days. Cope harder

Are you really bragging about a single battle in a war you lost and basically halved your country?

Luxembourg's high PPP is due to tax reasons. PPP isnt reliable, for example it makes Ireland looks as rich as Norway when most of Ireland is actually poor and shit

You can thank this guys country that you still exist. Say something nice about him

The battle was pretty funny as well.

Dutch side:
> 280,000 men
>1 tank
>145 aircraft

German side
>750,000 men
>759 tanks
>830 aircraft

Losses on the Dutch side
>2,332 killed
>7,000 wounded

Losses on the German side
>2,032 killed
>6,000–7,000 wounded
>225–275 aircraft destroyed

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Netherlands

wtf was Germany even doing?

No, you can thank the USA that Germany still exists. And isn't a Russian colony by now.

Lmao no. USA was the reason why we have lost in the first place. Have you subhuman ever heard about the term "lend lease"?

Nah, the reason you lost is because Germany losses all wars. And then brags about it.

This, i went on a euro trip and austria felt like a poorer, cheaper version of switzerland. Luxembourg is suprisingly cheap with affordable housing.

It's much easier to be prosperous for a country with a small population and a small area

There is no logical reason why that would be the case.

>Dutch logic
Why don't you thank one of these subhumans that your pathetic little country still stands today? They literally saved your asses so be grateful about it

The Netherlands was liberated by Canada

Nope without the US's intervention the Wehrmacht would've wiped the floor with the russians and the country Netherlands would've been a thing of the past

The USA failed to liberate us at operation market garden. So they stopped trying.
And then Germans started bullying unarmed civilians, because they were autists who couldn't stand the idea that they were losing the war.
And then Canada proceeded to defeat Germany.

The Canadians came 9 months after operation market garden, so we were stuck with German autists for so many months longer..

I just looked it up. 5 countries didn't manage to defeat one fcking country who already fights on another front. Quite pathetic subhumans if you ask me

Yeah, but you couldn't defeat the Netherlands together with France and England. Which is pretty sad as well.

Only in WW2 we didn't bother with beating down Germans yet again. So we settled for a tie in losses.

>There is no logical reason why that would be the case
It's an absolute no-brainer.. lmao.
More efficient implementation of policies?

Governments don't make people rich.

Germany wasn't even a thing back then, retard. Only some irrelevant states

And less need for resources to distrubute to the citizens? I could go on but when you fail to see the logic in such deduction there is something wrong with you

Equally abstract and absurd statement.

The government literally just redistributes wealth. And in most cases prevents the market from doing it's job.

When the Netherlands was the richest country in the world, twice as rich as the second European country and colonized the world, it wasn't the governments doing. The government just stepped back and let businesses do their thing. Even the colonizing and waging wars was done by businesses.

They collect money from wealthy EU countries and give it to poor EU countries for "improvements" on the condition they use German equipment to do said improvements.

>German and Dutchie fighting
Pls stop we are supposed to be frens

Halt die Fresse

To add. You can just ask Russia what happens when you try to use the government to get people rich.

But you are bringing up jist a single case with regards to the old days of your country and make a generalization out of it.
Government doesn't make people rich, but it helps people make themselves rich. Even when we put the government aside, the profits your businesses took away from their colonies were distributed to a country that is itself merely a tiny fraction of these colonies. The wealth an average dutch benefits from the colonization of Indonesia definitely overwhelms the wealth an average japanese benefits from the colonization of Korea, for example

Weiß deine Mutti eigentlich dass du noch wach bist?

>You can just ask Russia what happens when you try to use the government to get people rich.
Or you could ask countries like Korea, Singapore, etc. I am afraid planned economy is incompatitible to capitalism in your misunderstanding

Do you think it's easier for a small country to colonize the world than for a large country?
Or that a large country, with many more people, should colonize the same amount as a small country?

>Do you think it's easier for a small country to colonize the world than for a large country?
Why did the Germans never achieve a colonial empire as large as yours, may I ask?

In our history we had to fight the Romans, Spaniards, French, Germans, British. And to colonize areas we fought Brazil, Indians, Indonesians, Chinese and so on.

That's not exactly easy being small.

They think they are the center of the world. Already the best, richest and most powerful country. Even when the facts say otherwise.

That's also why they start those silly wars that they can't win.

Russia could beat your filthy ass anyway, nigger.

The EU is the continuation of war Germany. Germany is the heart of Europe.
They're a disappointment for Christian Europa being allied with the Ottomans and Turks. Erdogan calls Deutschland a turk colony

Germany has the coal and iron deposits necessary for industry along a large river that makes moving goods cheap. They are also located bang in the middle of a continent full of wealthy consumers. Geographically it is one of the best locations for industry in the world.

Germany is not energy self sufficient

they voted green.

Not anymore but it had the ingredients necessary to create largest and successful industry which are coal and iron.

You are talking about external struggles while disregarding internal struggles. In a smaller country it is much easier to build cooperation and political stability. When failing to do so, you are at risks of consequential losses in external missions as proven by the fall of
countless empires.
Also, the small population wasn't that much of a problem in warfare then. Most armies were made up of mercenaries and the Dutch had enough finance to afford them.

I am sure the germans had vested interests in oversea colonies

They certainly have the means to be self sufficient however they're watermelon now. virtue against nuclear whilst importing fossil fuel energy

They also import huge amounts of nuclear energy from France kek.

well

But what about the chlorinated chicken?
