Germany as England, quickly changes character of its industries and becomes manufacture and the commercial nation instead of the agricultural nation. It is reason of its known anxiety to provide the control over territories in Africa, Asia, etc., as the exclusive markets for it , as, unlike England, Germany - now the supporter in an exception in trade, and houses and in its colonies. Fifty years ago approximately the four seventh people of Germany have been occupied in agriculture; now only approximately one third of people is so employed. Growth of the big cities of Germany in eight times faster than that from rural areas, and in fifty years the cumulative population of six greatest cities of Berlin of empire, Hamburg, Leipzig, Munich, Breslau, also has Dresden grown up sixfold, namely, from 600 000 to 3 600 000. In fifty years, also, manufacturing of Germany have almost doubled, the trade almost trebled, shipment has increased more than fivefold, and the mining industry made more than sixfold. While all it is true, however also is true, that the area of cultural soil in Germany is double, than it was fifty years ago. But it - because it is a lot of the earth, before be gone for nothing or in a pasture, has been brought at . Nevertheless even now only one half of earth of Germany is grown up, and thirty three percent. From full consumption of food of people should be imported. Fifty years ago only five percent. From full food consumption has been imported, and this small fraction consisted almost completely of luxury.
