Germany

Germany (German: Deutschland) is a country located in Central Europe, being located between the Alps to the south and the Baltic and North Seas to the north. Bordering countries include Denmark to the north, Poland and the Czech Republic to the east, Austria to the southeast, Switzerland to the southwest, the Netherlands, and Belgium, Luxembourg, and France to the east.
Germany's territory occupies 357,022 km2 (137,847 sq mi) of land, with a water percentage of 1.27%. It has a population of 83,190,556, being the 2nd largest in Europe next to Russia. The capital and largest city is Berlin, which also serves as one of sixteen states in Germany.
The SCP Foundation hosts an International Branch within Germany, which is simply named the Germanophone Branch and operates in other German-speaking countries such as Switzerland and Austria.
==Relevant history==
=== Overview ===
In ancient times, Germanic tribes occupied great portions of modern day Germany, clashing with the expanding Roman Empire on numerous occasions throughout the late BCE and early CE centuries. These tribes would not be fully united until the Holy Roman Empire was formed under Charlemagne in 800, functionally ending the Dark Ages. The Reformation began in northern Germany, drawing many followers away from the teachings and tithes of the Catholic Church. When the HRE fell in 1806, Germany divided into many city states until reunifying under Prussia in 1871 as the German Empire.
The German Empire engaged in a brief war with France that took Alsace-Lorraine, as well as World War I which resulted in the dissolution of the Empire and heavy punishments being established by the Triple Entente upon the newly formed Weimar Republic. In the chaos and extreme poverty, Adolf Hitler took charge of Germany and led it to reestablish the economy, military, and enact horrific policies upon minority groups. Hitler's Nazi Germany began World War II by invading Poland in 1939, with the war ultimately resulting in Hitler's death and the fall of Nazi Germany in 1945; they divided into two states, the NATO-led West Germany and USSR-led East Germany. These two Germanies would not unite until the establishment of the Federal Republic in 1990, eventually forming a strong presence in the European Union.
The anomalous world has a significant stronghold in Germany due to the central location of the nation and the occultic practices of the SS Ahnenerbe Obskurakorps. The SCP Foundation's Germanophone Branch has several facilities throughout the Deutschland, counteracting and containing various anomalies within German borders.
