"I don�t see any reason to categorize Germans with courage."

I do.

"They just are like all the rest of us."

There is no "all the rest of us". Cultures that prize courage and militarism can turn out more brave and militaristic people than cultures that don't prize those characteristics. Extreme examples would be Sparta and Zululand.

Culture, of course influence the people who are basically all the same everywhere.
Well now Modern time Germany is the culture that absolutely not encourage any militarism!
But on the contrary! And how.
And as for courage, Mrs. Merkel just stated for her New Year speech that German should stop living in a culture of look away ( no courage ) and start for a culture of " seing ".
