At some point a few years ago .... I then times behaupted that German was funded in large part by Luther and the Brothers Grimm. Partly true, yet the very knowledgeable scribe that described much better than me ... Anyway, here again: The Luther, Goethe and the Brothers Grimm. - Well - if that were all, it would be less than nothing. German is much older. Older than French or even English. Gensfleisch Since the Lord, which was named after Gutenberg, printed in German, was written in German a bit earlier. Much earlier. Until about 1200, Latin was the lingua universalis in Europe. Each farmer spoke Latin. The people in the cities anyway. There were regional languages. Almost all regional languages are extinct. Dialects have survived. - When did the Middle Ages to the end, as it was also with the wits end. Nation-states emerged. England. Spain. Portugal. France. Sweden. Russia. Germany appeared the 1871st This was then the 2.Reich. The Holy Roman Empire Teutscher nation (1.Reich) existed since Charlemagne (crowned 800) for a thousand years and was only liquidated by Napoleon. Kaiser Karl did not speak German. Dissemination of salvation was important to him. His ideas were European. apart from brief interruptions (Okupation the remaining states by Prussia. Nazism and Hitlerism), Germany was never a nation state. Is still not today. Germany is a federation of states with several free states, provinces and city-states. are here states that dreamed of regionalists in Europe are (Basques, Bretons, Scots, Welsh ...)! In fact, it has never been Germany. A dream muddled brains. There Swabia, Rheinhessen, Sauerland, Bavaria, Berlin and recently again Saxony, etc. These people can be in the German language to communicate. The parlierenden in German Swiss are no Germans, though they speak German, read, write and understand. This also applies to Austria.
