As for the German discussion brother i loved the germans in WW2 (Not including hitler and the nazi's). Now hopefully ya'll know this but the german people were fed propganda by hitler and led to believe that they were being attacked first. And if Hitler would have listened to his generals he might have actually won the war. 

As for the motto i just don't like the chivalrous thing. Personally it just doesn't seem right fit but again i am probably against a majority. I wil grow to like it eventually but right now eh....not the best one i have seen.
