The German Emuire

The new German Empire, the United
States of Germany, contains almost exactly
the same population as the United States

1be United States OF the Empire of Ger
many comprised in 1867 an area in square
miles Of 2O4,776; population, 81, 52I 900.
This is little more than our population
was in that year, and probably now the two
populations are jast about equal in mum
bers:
Ohio has 10000 square miles, and there
fore the Empire Of Germany is as large in
area as five States like Ohio. And yet the
United States Of America have good ~
habItsble territory equal TO about ten Ger.
man Empires, provided the whole Of Ger
many is inhabitable. Making due allow
snce for mountains, MARSHES and rivers in
Germany, this Republic is probably equal
to about twelve German Empires ;ncin-
matt Times.
