The Euro-Crisis is getting more serious each day. Many argue that there is one thing that can save the Euro: Eurobonds. But what are these Euro-Bonds, why is it so hard for the Euro-Countries to agree on this matter. explainity tries to shed some light.

the germans say they have paid enough billions to cover any reparation issues. the greeks say they need another 70 billion. with the political analysts and national leaders divided over this there is no chance the average web surfer can find the right answer. therefore it all comes down to whether you trust the germans or the greeks.

The Germans do not have the gold. The gold, 18.86 tons, was in the spring of 1941 when the German advance initially brought to the island of Crete. Later transported to the British cruiser Dido the gold of the Greeks to Alexandria in Egypt.

From there it was later transferred to Pretoria and finally to London, where it held with the Bank of England for the Greeks. After the war, the gold was returned to Athens and stored in the vaults of the Bank of Greece. There it is today.

And the worst of all is the lack of historical perspective this people have, acting as superior and forgetting that Germany owes many european countries A LOT OF GOLD... when Germany pays what it ows and returns ALL THE GREEK GOLD, then we will see who is the rich country... It is like the father stole from the neighbours and now the son plays the good man going back to them and throwing some coins of their own money... We don`t forget history...

Europe is built on solidarity. Solidarity means many things, one of them is to repair the bad doings of the past and if there is a country with a huge historical debt with the others is Germany. The whole world knows that German nazis stole the gold from many countries, including Greece, Rumania, Poland, etc... not long time ago... where did all the gold go?? Switzerland?? It is time to put things where they deserve, it is too easy to blame hard working greeks for their struggle during decades.

Things are not that easy. It only shows the low cultural level of the people doing these video since they aren`t aware of many other facts. For example the fact that Greece has struggled for decades since Germany stole all the Greek gold during WWII ( and believe me, it was a lot of gold, as much as 4 times nowadays Greek`s debt) EVERYONE KNOWS, even the german politicians, that much of that gold boosted Germany´s industrial development while the greeks have been waiting for them to pay back.

Why not create a stand alone site like google, worlpress, youtube, howstuffworks, wikipedia, facebookk etc. With this small peace of advice EXPLAINITY can be a webhold name. May be you can be the next web Millionaire in the making.
