  • In German, numbers are spoken from left to right, as in English, but ones and tens are always swapped. So 23 becomes three, twenty, and 135 becomes one hundred, five, and thirty:

    • Achter Stock (8)
    • Achtzehnter Stock (18)
    • Achtundzwanzigster Stock (28)
    • Dreizehnter Stock (13)
    • Dreiundzwanzigster Stock (23)
    • Dritter Stock (3)
    • Einundzwanzigster Stock (21)
    • Elfter Stock (11)
    • Erdgeschoss (0)
    • Erster Stock (1)

    Oh, and the first floor is called the ground floor and is not counted.



  • The first NSDAP government came into being in 1930, in Thuringia. It toppled a left-wing government with a broad alliance of liberals, conservatives and right-wing extremists. Today, a center-left government is still in power in Thuringia, but in a tolerated minority government that is dependent on the votes of the other parties. In a few months, it will most likely be voted out by another one. The liberal, conservative and far-right parties are already using their majority to jointly push through laws against the government. An extreme right-wing party will probably become the strongest force and as such will be able to do a lot of damage, even without government participation.

    There are already areas where only right-wing candidates are running and right-wing conservatives are the most left-wing option.

    Perhaps history will repeat itself this year.
