Germany and its cities



Cologne
Germany is a very nice place to be when you want to have a good vacation.This is the city of Cologne. Some things you would probably want to know is that their language is German. Then their government is ran by three parts: Bundesversammlung or the federal convention is an institution of consisting of the members of the Bundestag and an equal amount of state delegates.
The second highest government in the German order of precedence is the Bundestagspräsident elected by the Bundestag and responsible for overseeing the daily sessions of body.
The third  place of government and the head of government is the Chancellor. He is appointed to the Bundestpräsidesident after being elected by the Bundestag. Although the Chancellor can be removed by the constructive vote of no confidence by the bundestag. The constructive implies that the Bundestag simultaneously has to select a successor.
The next thing i would have to explain about Germany is based on projections in 2008 about 34.1% of Germans have no registered religion denomination. According to a poll 45% believe in god, a quarter believe in Jesus Christ. Also christianity is the biggest religion in Germany and only about 49.4 million adrehents of which 24.5 million are protestants. Only 24.9 million are catholic from 2008 and about the second largest region is islam which consists of 3.8 million to 4.3 million adrehents followed by hinduism and judaism.
Germany's currency is a very simple coin system. Instead of them using dollars they use coins like dollars and cents. Unlike our american money they use euro which is an E marked with a line down it. There are very many different kinds of coins. Bronze coins, silver coins and gold silver coins. The bronzes are worth 1,2 and 5 cents (euro) and the gold coins are worth 10, 20, 50 cents (euro) and for the silver and gold coins they are worth 1$ or 2$ (euro). I have been in Germany for 1 day and already enjoying the cinema, music, media, sports, cuisine and their lovely society. I enjoyed many of the plays and operas they put on and their sports are so similar to our sports. And their cuisine style is as fancy as their geographical monuments such as the Great Pyramid monument.
