Germany has no such financial industry, this industry is most old stomping ground. Frankfurt can only manage a measly 15th place when it comes to top finance centres of the world. With the sheer regulation there, lack of external economies of scale, few supporting industries e.g. law and not English speaking they can't hope to compete.

Our cuisine is getting better, but with the fusion of our Asian populations, you can't hope to match us now haha.
Don't be silly why don't you come over? I will be your guide. Or shall I come to France? I have to fulfil my objective of meeting one of my childhood crushes Sophie Marceau, she's single as well.
