    German drinking age: 16 years for beer, wine, sparkling wine and cider - 18 years for "hard" liquor like whisk(e)y, vodka etc. If you are 14 or 15 years old, you can have a beer or some wine when accompanied by your parents, e.g. in a restaurant, but you can't buy alcohol or drink unaccompanied.

      Actually, 16 isn't the legal *drinking* age but legal *purchase* age. Legally children are allowed to drink light alcohol from the age of 14 on if their parents agree.

    The trespassing thing is really different here in Germany. When I walk or bike then I can usually use every path I like. It´s not meant that you should open a gate or jump over the fence of a house, but you can walk across a pasture area, farm area, even if there is a fence for the animals. There usually are gates you may open and maybe there is a sign that reminds you to properly close the gate (for the cows not to escape) and that you should put your dog on the leash. This is especially true when walking in the alps. You won´t get any problems as long as you don´t litter or destroy anything. If you see someone, greet, be friendly .. just normal behaviour as with your next neighbour. No gun, no knife, no weapons at all. I would miss this freedom.

    If you break out of jail the attempt of outbreaking is not punished, but in case you destroy anything while outbreaking, this will be punished! Or if you hurt someone, it also will be punished. And it is very hard to break out without either destroying some window bars or hurting a prison guard. That said.... it is really ONLY the outbreak which counts as legal and not the "shards" that may arise in connection with that.

    There are videos by Feli from Germany and Nalf on the topic of alcohol drinking in Germany. Have a look.
    On the insurance thing when on someone's land: we have those signs saying "Betreten auf eigene Gefahr" - which means something on the lines of "Entering on your own responsibility". With this sign at the entry of the property, the owner is basically safe from any payments for broken ankles. It's the law.

    Entering other people's properties is of course not generally permitted. There are differences. For example, I am not allowed to enter an agricultural field without permission, but I am allowed to enter the dirt path between the fields. I am not allowed to enter any private property without permission that has a house, garage, stable or industrial hall on it. However, I am allowed to enter a private forest without permission, but I am not allowed to collect mushrooms without permission. There are even more examples!

    7:00 No trespassing signs exist in Germany, too and you have to follow them. But those sign are only because of security like for construction sites or company areas. And if there is a fence etc. you are not allowed to climb it. But if there is a private path or road like there is on farmland or in forests you can use it. There are gates, but the gates are often constructed in a way to allow people on foot to pass, but vehicles can only pass if they got a key to the gate. We have even a beekeeper law that allows a beekeeper to follow the bees when they are swarming to get his swarm even if he is trespassing.

      with actual foot paths its similar to the common law in the UK ... when the paths on private land were accessible to and used by the public for a while in the past without challenge the right to roam applies and the owner cant undo that by for example putting up fences.
      the more general right to roam independend of existing paths is dependend on the lands use actually ... ofc the fenced of gardens right next to houses are off limits, agricultural land is off -limits if roaming would cause damage (to the crop for example), fenced off agricultural land (for cattle etc) is off limits with exceptions (as an angler for example I am allowed to cross the fence if its in the way to fishing waters) ... unused private land, woods etc are usually free for everyone to roam, fencing that off and keeping people off has to meet certain requirements which are not trivial to establish.
      And then there is the right for access, whenever private land denies access to something publicly owned or without ownership the land owner has to create/allow access ... so buying all land around something you dont own doesnt give you the right to deny people access to whatever your land encloses.

      In Germany, they are not called "bon bon". Bonbons are just candies in Germany. If you want chocolates with alcohol, watch out for "Pralinen mit Alkohol" or "Trüffel mit Alkohol" in Germany. Both, Pralinen and Trüffel, are also available without alcohol, so make sure they are labeled "mit Alkohol".
      If I remember it right, they are called "Praliner" in Finland, and they also have them with or without alcohol there. But I‘m not 100% sure and too tired to look it up 😁

    Beer and wine are definitely considered parts of German culture. When I was in school, we took a week-long school-trip in grade 10, when most of us were 16. On one evening, we had a wine tasting, where a sommelier was invited. I was the youngest and the only one who was 15, so very embarrassingly, I was the only one who needed a signature from her mom. lol. There were a lot of soft drinks too of course and no one was forced to drink alcohol, and also a lot of pretzels, cheese, grapes, chocolate and gummies. But we tasted several kinds of white, rosé and red wine, learned what you would serve them with, what's a desert wine, what regions they came from, what's important for growing good wine, what glasses to use for what kind of wine and how to swish it around in your mouth to taste the different aromas. We even had to make notes for each wine on paper and decide on our favourite one. Mine was Silvaner from Frankonia. :D

    AT 16 you can buy soft alcohol, beer and wine or order it in a restaurant. From 18 on there are no limits.
    If you are with your parents or someone who has custodial rights, like a teacher, and you are over 14 the grown up can allow you to drink soft alcohol in public.
    For family gatherings or such, there are no limits.
    I think the basic idea is that parents should know their children best, and that kids should slowly be introduced to alcohol and learn potential dangers. In the real world, normal kids of 14 don't really like the taste of beer or wine and just want to taste it because it's a grown up thing.
    If you compare the USA with Germany you will find, that Germans drink a bit more alcohol per head on average, but the numbers of negative consequences of alcohol are far lower in Germany. DUI driving and criminal acts like homicides under influence are far less common.

    all kids growing up have to do a driver licence tested by traffic police for their bicycle when going to elementary school, its mandatory, thats how they learn how to behave on streets and learn major traffick signs and street variations and what they mean.
    when these kids grow up, become 18 and get their driving licence for car, they already know how it feels to be a cyclist and slow down in city areas looking out for kids on streets.
    the procedure to get a driver licence takes many expensiv hours in a special driver school, a private run but certifite school, obeying the state rules, and show how to drive on highway, innercity, long distance, nighttime in the dark lesson!!! and many more, then add hours of theory! usually this takes half a year to squeeze in the lessons of theory in special licenced schools and driving lessons and will cost 2000 euro by now, yes twothousand. also, your car must pass technic tests to be allowed on the road, they must be best shape, have to carry a first aid kitt, which must contains specific items and that strictly, also a neon west to wear, an accident sight securing traffic sighn, which is a triangle sign to put up on street , and you have to do an extended first-aid-class provided by the firedepartment for example, to get your driver licence! and add to that eyesight test too! if you can not pass eyesight test, first-aid-class, you are never getting a driver licence.
    these highly trained people can responsibly drive without speed limit.
    there you learn responsible driving on highways, even in areas that are no speed limit and keep left lane always free, never stay on left lane long, bc someone is always faster than you.

      In many muslim countries, it‘s not a good idea to drink alcohol in public. To break free from prison is illegal in many if not most countries around the world. While other countries do have roads without any speed limits, too, those are mostly not built for speeding up much, so our Autobahn really is unique.
      In pretty much every country I have been to there were things that stunned me. That doesn‘t mean I can‘t look over the edge. On the contrary, it means that I do look over the edge - and am stunned. That’s the way it should be in my opinion.

    USA is the land of the free without freedom! The freedom to roam includes the right, that you can take anything that grows by nature. Berries and mushrooms you can take. We also can drive as fast as it safe. But there is an indirect speed limit 😢 if the car producers have a competition, who has the fastest family limousine. Where would this end? It makes no sense. Mercedes, Audi an BMW made a gentlemens agreement. All normal cars are limited at 250 kilometers per hour. Faster cars need another aerodinamik, downforce, suspension and brakes. Only real sportscars are not limited. When i drive with my SLK it makes no sense to put the pedal to the metal. At 250 the limiter works, thats ok because the Audis and BMWs are not faster 😂 You need a Porsche if you want go faster.
