ABOUT ME: Hallo, Servus, and welcome to my channel! My name is Felicia (Feli), I'm 30 years old, and I'm a German living in the USA! I was born and raised in Munich, Germany but have been living in Cincinnati, Ohio off and on since 2016. I first came here for an exchange semester during my undergrad at LMU Munich, then I returned for an internship, and then I got my master's degree in Cincinnati. I was lucky enough to win the Green Card lottery and have been a permanent resident since 2019! In my videos, I talk about cultural differences between America and Germany, things I like and dislike about living here, and other topics I come across in my everyday life in the States. Let me know what YOU would like to hear about in the comments below. DANKE :)

you know what? you're really really good at breaking down somewhat obscure, or complex topics very clearly, in a memorable way.

In the United States, we are still paying a phone tax on landlines to fund the Spanish-American War

It's crazy how many laws stay on the books just because people forget about them and don't enforce them, but then suddenly you get that one situation. Arizona was in the news for something similar recently. Always a pleasure, Feli! Hope you and Ben have a great Christmas!

Virtually the first law Hitler promoted after taking power was a strict animal protection law that is still reflected in laws throughout Europe. Goerings famous quote was: "He who tortures an animal wounds the pride of the German People."

Feli, I think you should consider a video on the German Gun Act of 1938. There is a lot of misconceptions about this law here in the U.S. that it was a law prohibiting gun ownership in Germany. I was schooled by a German on this law.

I don’t know if you actually read all of the comments Feli but I just wanted you to know that I absolutely love all of these history lessons that you post! ❤️

Not only in Germany. In most Swiss cantons, companies also have to pay church taxes. However, only natural persons can avoid taxes by declaring their withdrawal.

The signals code for tramways / streetcars was unified around 1937 and they are still today applicable troughout Germany (StVO).

Great episode Feli!!! I just want to say a Happy Holiday to you, Ben, and both of your families.

Super Video!

I love your informational videos still as German I can learn from them.

[Alfred-vpq]

“In 1931, the Nazi Party (then a minority in the Reichstag) proposed a ban on vivisection, but the ban failed to attract support from other political parties. By 1933, after Hitler had ascended to the Chancellery and the Nazis had consolidated control of the Reichstag, the Nazis immediately held a meeting to enact the ban on vivisection. On April 21, 1933, almost immediately after the Nazis came to power, the parliament began to pass laws for the regulation of animal slaughter.[11] On April 21, a law was passed concerning the slaughter of animals; no animals were to be slaughtered without anesthetic.”

I still cannot get over how perfect your American English is. If I didn't HEAR you speak in German, I would think you were any typical U.S. native from your speech.

Immer mehr Kudos für dich, Felicia - so interessant und informativ ist dein Kanal. Ein Beitrag zum kulturellen Verständnis diverser gesellschafts-politischer Ursprünge und deren Niederschlag in Gesetze und Verordnungen, die zu Recht bis heute Gültigkeit haben, hebt dich über einen reinen Unterhaltungskanal weit hinaus.
Bitte weiter so . . . !

I just now subscribed. I traveled to Germany for years on business and I love the country and her people.
I must say, you speak absolutely PERFECT English with just a small hint of an accent. I look forward to your videos.

Just found your channel. I studied in Freiburg in Breisgau many years ago. You bring a great perspective and you cover many sensitive topics most Americans don’t understand about German culture in an approachable way with great sensitivity.

Mind you that Reinhard Gehlen (Fremde Heere Ost) was in charge of the BND: Following the end of World War II, Gehlen surrendered to the United States Army. While in a POW camp, Gehlen offered FHO's microfilmed and secretly buried archives about the USSR and his own services to the U.S. intelligence community. Following the start of the Cold War, the U.S. military (G-2 Intelligence) accepted Gehlen's offer and assigned him to establish the Gehlen Organization, an espionage service focusing on the Soviet Union and Soviet Bloc. Beginning with his time as head of the Gehlen Organization, Gehlen favored both Atlanticism and close cooperation between what would become West Germany, the U.S. intelligence community, and the other members of the NATO military alliance. The organization employed hundreds of former members of the Nazi Party and former Wehrmacht military intelligence officer.

Very, very interesting.
Your method of presenting the pros and cons is commendable! I appreciate your time, research, and cognitive information.

From WWII in the US we still have a tax on light bulbs. Light bulbs were seen then as a luxury and what was supposed to have been a temporary tax for that war, still is real.

Very interesting and very well presented. I was stationed in Landstuhl near Kaiserslautern with the United States Army from 1978 to 1981 and didn't know much about the Nazis or German history at the time, but I've learned a lot about it since. Danke sehr.
