Germany - map of central Europe

I have chosen to explore the central northern European country of Germany when looking into anthropomorphic climate change on a specific region.
Germany is a country which holds roughly 80,996,685 people as of 2014, and has been declining in its population by -0.18% each year.  Germany's largest city, and also it's capital, Berlin holds 3,460,000 people.

Germany is comprised of the North German Plain, the Central German Uplands, and the Southern German Highlands.
Germany has had the influence of countries such as Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Switzerland, and Poland to help in shaping their cultural ways.
The German economy is the largest in the continent and is also the fifth largest in the world, making it a power house and central figure amongst the leading nations.

Culturally, Germans place a high priority on structure, privacy and punctuality in their daily lives. As said by German locals when discussing their values on thriftiness and hard work, there is a great emphasis on making sure that "the trains run on time." Time is managed carefully, and calendars, schedules and agendas must be respected at a high manor.

Similarly to the rest of the Earth, Germany has been affected by the global rising temperatures. The number of days in Germany, reaching temperatures above 86 degrees Fahrenheit, has increased from three days to eight days per year.

In general, Germany's climate is moderate and generally has no elongated periods of cold or hot weather.  Northwestern and coastal Germany have a maritime influenced climate.  This climate region of Germany is characterized by warm summers and mild cloudy winters.  And as you go farther inland Germany the climate is more continental.  This inland region of Germany is recognized by their greater seasonal variations in temperature, with warmer summers and colder winters.

And then as you go more to the southern region of Germany you hit the Alpine mountain regions, composed of a more mountain climate condition.  This is composed mainly by lower temperatures because of the higher altitudes and greater precipitation cuased by air becoming moisture-laden as it lifts over higher terrain.
