    Yeah I mean setting aside the facts that Germany was literally split in half for 40 years after WW2 and governed by outside forces for a time, was basically forced to enact reforms to prevent the elevation of fascists to their government again, and had a thorough set of war crime trials (a process created from the ground up specifically for Germany), they basically just whistled dixie and the world started trusting them again when they elected a different chancellor. /s
