Germany used to be a clusterfuck of different tribes and the different names for the Germans came from the tribes that were encountered first (Allemans, Germans, Saxonians, Teutons etc.). Slavs call us Niemcy because it comes from the word "mute" because the encountered German tribes didn't speak slav. The only name of Germany which is close to Deutschland comes from Japan because these two countries met relatively late after Germany was unified.

in greece we call france "gallia" and frenchies "gallous" because of the gauls
and for "gauls" we use "galates"

Our name for Germany is very exotic and doesnt sound German at all.

Duitsland

>>57878732
Anglos couldn't be bothered.

Niemcy = mutes

I have a question that is unrelated to your question, what is the opinion of germany in your country?

>>57879014
We don't think of you as nazis if that's what you're thinking

The French call us Allemande because Chlodwig/Clovis (I think that's his French name) defeated the Alemannic tribe to form the Frankish Empire, which would later be split up in Germany and France (simplified version)

Duits and Deutsch come from Teutonicus, which is a word Romans used to describe >us

German refers to the Germanic tribes, that name was given by Caesar himself.
