German culture-110 is very
interesting and cultural course because you will have a good knowledge about
different topics which is covered most of the German culture. I learned such a
valuable information in this course included art, politics, sports, economy,
role of women, and other things about German culture from 18th century until
the present day. Also, one of the most things I like about this course is Blogs
because everyone in class is able to see any student work so it's help to have
a good background and learning more about your assignment. Baden-Wurttemberg is
the first topic i learned about in this course and Baden-Wurttemberg is one of
the sixteen states in Germany. The second topic i studied about is overview of
all German parties such as German Hanoverian Party, The National Socialist German Workers' Party
(Nazi Party), The Christian Democratic Union (CDU), and Democratic Party
(SPD). After politics parties i started
to read 'All Quiet on the Western Front' Book because we have to do chapter
review and write about one of the main characters in the book. German Art is
one of the most topics i like about German culture because i worked in it with
my group for a couple weeks so I got good information about it. Before last
topic i learned about we watched three German movies which are Berlin Calling,
Baader-Meeinhof, and All Quiet on the Western Front. All of these movies were
interesting and the one i most like is Berlin calling. The last topic we talked
about is German food & holidays which were surprised me because there are
some similar dishes to what we have in my home town which is Saudi Arabia for
example Kebab. Finally, i really enjoyed this course and i recommend every student
to take it because you will have a good information and background about German
culture.

Baader-Meinhof
1-
They were not killing people
but they did make stand against the government by exploding government buildings
and bank robberies.
2-
They have been trying to
change the government by force which is totally wrong way in my opinion they
should make that change without exploding or killing people.
3-
Yes, Andreas Baader's played
a key role into the group's motivation and he usually make the group taking
action against the government and his behavior is very strong.
