Unlike most boys, Kurt had little interest in such things as football and other sports. Instead, he enjoyed painting and Puhek 2 singing. Therefore, much of his time at school was spent with the girls("Biography"). For this, Kurt did not have many friends at school. Many thought he was either strange or bisexual, s ....

.... would cause a solution to the falling financial and industrial markets. Great Britain first off closed their market from others, forcing the people to purchase their products rather than ones from other countries.

These four factors are just some of the factors that helped German industry grow and rival that of Great Britain. These four factors are all very similar to the Japan-U.S. trade rivalry. Japan like Germany was able to catch up to the U.S. because the U.S. was large and arrogant and refused to believe it could face competition from Japan.
