LONDON (InsideBitcoins) — The map of Europe has not always been dominated by Germany. Prior to 1871, the country didn’t even exist; before then the German speaking people lived in a disparate group of principalities and duchies, the ‘Holy Roman Empire,’ a state dominated by Austria and still later by Prussia. Since that time, the German Question, as it was usually referred to, plagued the minds of the political intelligentsia. Its central location, its size and its population base mixed with the seemingly unstoppable work ethic of its people and produced a country that was better placed to inherit the mantel of European hegemony than any other since the fall of the Roman Empire.
