  German Background stats

  Portuguese Background stats

Background Despite being on the losing side of two world wars, Germany remains one of the most influential powers in Europe, boasting the 4th largest country in terms of surface area of the EU with 357,000 sq km, behind France, Spain and Sweden. However, with a population of almost 81.5 million, it is most populous nation in the EU. With the Baltic Sea to its north east, and the North Sea to the north west, Germany is bordered by a total of 9 countries. Denmark (68km) lies to the north, Poland (456km) and the Czech Republic (646km) to the east, Austria (784km) and Switzerland (334km) to the south, France (451km), Luxembourg (138km), Belgium (167km) and the Netherlands (577km) to the west. Portugal shares the Iberian Peninsula with its much larger neighbor Spain, with whom it shares a 1,214km frontier. Portugal is dwarfed by their neighbor in in almost everything - population, area, GDP - but beats them in population density, 107.86 people per sqkm to Spain’s 78.43.
