Postby markystar » March 13th, 2008 7:01 am

the last thing that comes to mind when i think of germany are knights. probably 1000 other things pop into my head first when i think about germany.

the flag, punks, cars, cathedrals, a heraldic eagle, birkenstocks, adidas, football (soccer), ravers at love parade, etc...

and those wouldn't look much better than the green knight, admittedly.
but may i humbly make a suggestion?
how about a beautiful german beer maid?

While the knight doesn't scream Germany I can can certainly make that association with Teutonic Knights (though that particular knight isn't wearing the colors of that order).

I rather have Knight then a beer maid. Probably because I don't like beer and I loved those Ritterspiele when I was a kid (still love them ;)).

Sure Knights are hardly a German invention since thy were all over Europe but it's not not German, is it?

I prefer knight to beermaid any day. But maybe that's because Im a girl? Anywaays,
sure, knights arent the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Germany, but..well... is there any better suggestion besides Beermaids or birkenstocks??
I mean, who's reallly going to have shoes on their banner?

Actually: we have a lot of mediavel ruins, so it is not that far fetched.
But I wouldn't want to be associated with those shoes, I grant you that. ^_~

there may be lots of knights in the history of Germany- but, I definitley dont think of knights when I think about Germany.
