Overview

Germany, officially the Federal Republic of Germany, is a major economic and political power in Europe and globally. With a rich and complex history, from the Holy Roman Empire to its 20th-century divisions and reunification, it stands as a federal parliamentary republic. The country is a leading player in international trade and innovation, particularly in engineering and high-tech industries. While its economy faced contraction in 2023, it is projected to grow slowly in 2025, with the government actively addressing economic challenges and working on deficit reduction. Germany borders nine countries and plays a central role in European integration and global affairs.
