This much is certain: the economic recovery of Germany and Japan after the Second World War has been nothing short of impressive.
Both countries effectively lost WW2 and, needless to say, economists had more than enough reasons to be pessimistic when it comes to the future of Japan or Germany.
This video is about two countries from different continents that share a remarkable commonality: Germany as well as Japan are textbook examples of speedy post-war recoveries, World War II in our case.
This video explains how that happened because, without a doubt, there are economic lessons to be learned here.
Did WWII crush Germany and Japan from every imaginable perspective, including the financial one?
Most definitely, this fact is pretty much set in stone!
How did the two countries recover so quickly after WW2?
Well, this is where things start getting tricky but even in the controversy-filled world of economics, we're still able to identify common denominators (as you'll be finding out)!
