{{Infobox map | name = Germany | image = Flag of Germany.svg | type = | location = Western Europe | terrain = Forest, countryside }} '''Germany''' is a country in western Europe. ==Background== German engineering is renowned the world over.<ref name = "OverwatchDeclassified">''[[Overwatch: Declassified]]''</ref> ===History=== ====Pre-Crisis==== In the decade leading up to the [[Omnic Crisis]], Germany was faced with issues both internal and external. Internally, like many countries, Germany was witnessing the proliferation of [[AI]] and [[omnic]]s displacing human labor. Not wanting to leave its population unemployed, the government began backing sectors of labor where AI and robotics had not sufficiently displaced human workers. One of these fields was deep-sea exploration. Prior to this, engineers had been working on exoskeletons and energy shielding, and these submersible exoskeletons operated from ports along the North Sea. Some of these projects received funding from the [[German Armed Forces]].<ref name = "OverwatchDeclassified"/> Externally, Germany had to deal with growing instability in Europe, and wanted to improve its national security. This resulted in the creation of the [[Crusader Initiative]]. The Initiative was propagandized from its inception, in order to sell to the public that it was purely a defensive force.<ref name = "OverwatchDeclassified"/> ====Omnic Crisis==== {{Quote|So much blood was spilled in my country during the war.|[[Reinhardt Wilhelm]]}} When the [[Omnic Crisis]] began, Germany was one of the countries attacked by [[Anubis]]. When the war broke out, Germans from all walks of life applied to join the Crusaders, but despite the surge, Anubis's forces outnumbered Germany's 10:1. The Crusaders were instrumental in Europe's eastern front, but suffered catastrophic losses in the [[Battle of Eichenwalde]], even if it was still a human victory.<ref name = "OverwatchDeclassified"/> Around the time of the battle, [[Berlin]] was put on its highest alert level.<ref name = "BlizzPlanet">2016-08-23, [http://overwatch.blizzplanet.com/blog/comments/eichenwalde-easter-eggs Eichenwalde Easter Eggs]. ''Blizzplanet'', accessed on 2017-11-05</ref> [[Leipzig]] was also [[Siege of Liepzig|attacked]] by the omnics before the war's conclusion.<ref name = "OverwatchDeclassified"/> ==Known Locations== *[[Black Forest]] ===Towns/Cities=== *[[Berlin]] (capital) *[[Eichenwalde]] *[[Leipzig]] *[[Stuttgart]] ==Known Nationals== *[[Balderich von Adler]] *[[Emilia Fischer]] *[[Leon Honisch]] *[[Greta Klein]] *[[Reinhardt Wilhelm]] ==Trivia== *Germany's flag was revealed to be the same as the real-world Federal Republic of Germany in the loading screen for the ''Overwatch'' map [[Eichenwalde]]. ==References== <references/> [[Category: Countries]]
