### Question
What is the total number of suppliers from Germany?

### Hint
suppliers refer to s_suppkey; Germany is the name of the nation which refers to n_name = 'GERMANY';

### SQL
SELECT COUNT(T1.s_suppkey) FROM supplier AS T1 INNER JOIN nation AS T2 ON T1.s_nationkey = T2.n_nationkey WHERE T2.n_name = 'GERMANY'
