Wish they would remember that more, but the prevailing attitude seems to be that Germany started existing in 1945 after some idiot in a previous country in the same place decided it would be a good idea to industrialise mass murder.

Local here: When i was in school (pre 2000), all history lectures from the 8th grade on were basicly only about WW2 and what Hitler did.

People educated here really believe this somehow :-X
