What other countries, other than Germany, have German speaking people?

The German language is spoken by about 100 million speakers in the world today, and is considered one of the world’s major languages. It is also the most widely spoken first language in the European Union. This is largely due to historical reasons.

Firstly, the Germans were conquerers before the 19th Century and hence, many provinces around modern Germany were occupied by the Germans who spread the use of the language to these provinces. Also, during World War II, the persecution of the Jewish people also saw an exodus of German speaking people to these areas. Some of the countries where German is an official language are: Austria, Belgium, Italy (in selected provinces), Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Switzerland.In the Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Namibia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Slovakia and the Vatican City, German is recognized as a minority language.

This means that a small community of people living in these countries speak the language. While there are so many people who speak the German language, do bear in mind that there will be regional differences in terms of the way words are pronounced or terms given to different things. While there are no official dialects in German, you will find that even in different parts of Germany, some words are pronounced and spoken differently.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
