Their AK furniture.

>sling swivels mounted on the side of the stock instead of underneath
The krauts were way ahead of their time. We still have much to learn from them.
>>1092308
Like with other Eastern Bloc countries and the USSR
>guaranteed job with many benefits, unemployment was illegal
>free healthcare
>free education (including post-secondary)
>get to live in a comfy commieblock
>less petty/violent crime since the police was all up in everyone's ass
>>1092328
>unemployment was illegal aka NEET Hell
I love how socialists are viewed in the US as the party of "gibsmedat" when all these welfare recipients here would be sent to the gulags or lined in front of a concrete wall and shot.
It's kinda funny tbqh but the whole totalitarian thing is fucking gay so fuck them
Secret police recruitment
Sport

Other than Stasi, everything went right. Right up until the end.
>>1092720
Fuck, thats a cool post card.
Nothing, outside of making some fine small arms.
Reunification crippled Germany financially. Many parts of the former East Germany are still undeveloped ex soviet shit holes.
South Korea studied the reunification of Germany to look at possible reunification with North Korea. They came to the conclusion that it was too expensive. North Korea would have to raise their GDP and development to above Africa tier, for it to ever be considered.

It's better than most anthems I've heard
If it were still around, it would join the ranks of the other ex-combloc countries in resisting migrant refugees.

Tell me which one is less retarded
>>1092308
The being able to infiltrate western and then modern Germany. Lots of former Stasi and DDR agents have positions of power in Modern day Germany which is something you dont seen in other eastern bloc countries like Poland.
>>1093376
They're pretty much perfect symbols for socialist states when you put aside your opinions about socialism.
>Engineering and industry
It's actually German ingenuity, workers and farmers (the wheat)
>>1093400
That is impressive, but the Stasi was so prolific that it is not surprising
Was it something like 1 in 15 East Germans were Stasi informants or agents?
>>1093444
1 in 5.
Nothing, it's East fucking Germany
>>1092308
They had military parades, like true prussian successors

You and I both know that is retarded. Use your brain mongs.
>>1093604
t. Stasi
>>1093604
Gee, I wonder who's behind this post?
Everything was absolutely okay.
Except those fucking helmets. Fucking USSR and their "No Stahlhelm" bullshit.

Most of the times they would just have some nice policemen paying them a visit and then they would go to work.

Yeah in Poland one ex-agent became president and right afterwards ex-communist party member was elected as one, 2 times in a row.
Do not think that I'm a naziiiii
Actually we're commuuuuniiiists!

Ironically, the helmet design was a copy of the design made during the war for the successor of the old Stahlhelm. In addition the AK-47's design was inspired by the German Sturmgewehr 44.
>>1094612
No, AK-47 was inspired by the M1 Garand.
