Located in Central Europe, Germany is the second-most populous country in Europe. There are over 83 million people living there.
The region was originally named Germania before 100 AD. In the 10th century it was part of the Holy Roman Empire. Its participation in World War I and the result of losing the war led to the rise of the Nazi party and Hitler's rule. Germany started World War II in 1939 with its push to expand its territory throughout Europe. Further, Hitler's quest to build a pure Arian race led to millions dying in concentration camps, later known as the Holocaust.
After its defeat in World War II, Germany was divided into East and West Germany. It would stay this way until the fall of communism and its reunification on 3 October 1990. Today, Germany is a strong economic power with the largest economy in Europe.
