ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Germanization

Germanization is when certain places or activities are changed to look and act more like how they would in Germany, a country in Europe. For example, if a school classroom were Germanized, it would mean that the books, decorations, and rules of the classroom all look and behave like they would in a classroom in Germany. This can even extend to the teacher speaking German and assigning German-style homework assignments.
