Not only did they lose the two World Wars, they were directly responsible for the evilest person to ever govern in this part of the world. How did they go from losing WW1, economy collapsing, then losing another World War, to then become one of the world’s biggest economies?
Similar question for Japan, although they “only” lost one.

I heard someone describe how Great Britain had a bigger problem with adapting to post war economic changes because the industrial properties were largely intact after WW2. Germany had the dubious advantage of being bombed massively and they didn’t have to adapt buildings and deal with lease problems and attached neighbouring buildings designed for 40 to 100 or 150 years before in the stream age or earlier .. everything was brand new.
