German




 

German is the language of three major European countries: Switzerland, the home of beautiful Alps, international NGOs, and the Red Cross; Austria, the fourth-richest country in the European Union, with its popular cities of Vienna, Salzburg, and Innsbruck; and Germany, the second-largest exporter in the world, with a rich cultural heritage in literature, visual arts, and music. Germany stands at the forefront of the development of renewable energy and sustainable production.
