I tend to agree. But, unfortunately the first thing in peoples minds when hearing the word Germany, is 'Nazi' or 'Hitler'.
Seriously, i feel kind of bad when i see some Germans putting up with Nazi jokes when they are hanging around people from different nations.
I think stereotyping a German as a 'Nazi' is as ridiculous as stereotyping a Italian as a 'Mafioso'.
I think I agree that Hollywood is to blame for this phenomenon.
