    Well it’s the part where after the second world war Americans temporarily governed and American soldiers and their families where stationed. So all they ever saw of Germany was Bavaria. They took their experience back home and so the image spread.

    Northern Germany is nothing like southern Germany. Yes they like their beer, but Bratwurst and pretzels? More fish and bread.

      It’s so funny to me that you all have your own interpretation of what’s liked in what parts of what I would say is a small country in relative terms. You know what Americans eat in all 50 states? Burgers and fries.

        It seems to me that cultural homogeneity is a principle in the US though. I think it’s good though because it promotes mobility between states and holds what is a really massive nation together
