There is Church tax in Germany WHATTTTTT

I don’t get it WHY

[wideawake]

In Europe, the state traditionally supports the Church since the beginning of the modern period (the Peace of Westphalia in 1648).

The Church tax was instituted in order to keep the peace in a religiously divided country.

To an American it is bizarre.

To a European it is obvious.
