Switzerland, Austria, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Australia and New
Zealand were included... all rich countries and peaceful countries.

Pardon me, but Steffi Graf wasn't even mentioned in that article. And I would guess most people who took part in the poll have no idea who she is.

Germans abroad mostly want to be liked by other nations, probably they finally succeeded. Russians and Americans don't give a shit, when they're abroad they behave like they own this place anyway. And Brits are just nasty.

Actually, they don't care that much.

I like the Brits. Although they are shit in sports (eg. football,
tennis).

Wouldn't the most popular and important be Merkel elected twice by the Republic (or its process of selection)? Or is it that the last part of the criteria not met?

When the Federal Republic of Germany turned 60 in 2009 they had a big
poll. Steffi Graf was voted "greatest female German of the Federal
Republic in 1949-2009". Ahead of all politicians.

"I take it that this poll was not made in Warsaw in 1944?"

LOL!! TT's greatest-ever RST quote.

On this I have to agree with the poll and with Max, but I restrict
"greatest" only to Bayern, and then only Oberbayern.

Yo Max, since this is a tennis thread, I am going to comment on Germany with reference to tennis.

IMO, Germany is rotten. Gunter stabbed Monica Seles so the German, Steffi Graf could advance to #1 and win more slams. In a German Court, with a German judge, they set Gunter free.
Steffi Graf's slam count, after the stabbing is tainted. No country in the world would have turned an attempted murderer free, after he admited stabbing to advance a German player.

In that reference,Germany sucks

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_in_India

Doesn't seem that great to unless your very rich. Indians seem like big headed idiots, obsessed with money and material things. It's a very vain over populated country. It's know wounder you paid for a mail ordered bride I think you maid out cheap raja. Your much smarter then i thought are maybe you couldn't buy the amount of gold needed to marry one of your own women. No gold no wedding WTF, sound like love is of no important. I wonder how much that increases rapes in India. We already know China doesn't have enough Pussy to go around because of infanticide of baby girls. Let see what India come up with when people are to poor to marry and start kidnapping women for sex. For that matter they could also increase Homosexuality, they going to want to fuck something. It like the people who go to jail all the time, they mostly have done some very homosexual activity. There know pussy in jail so why would you want to go back and back and back.

P.S i Used the wiki source because for some reason i can't explain you find it to be a creditable source even over a book that was first release in the 1800's.
