> Germany has a few premier universities, but they still haven't recovered from the Nazi era.

Dude, under which rock have you been hiding?! How does "not recovered from the Nazi era" manifest in your opinion?

[MengerSponge]

Power, prestige, and productivity. Before the Nazis fucked up Germany its universities were better regarded than America's. Now, they're not as well regarded. They lost a lot of capability and prestige, and gained a little back. They haven't recovered to where they were.

What rock have I been working under? I've spent the last decade in American and German labs my dude.

Göttingen. We can know and we shall know.
