Thatcher’s main notoriety was curing the so called “sick man of Europe” which was Britain at the time. Britain was in a deep economic crises and Thatcher implemented certain things to help pull the country out of it. Thatcher took away free milk from the schools which saved the country a large sum of money. She also was known for making it hard to re-open closed shops and for her poll taxes.

For the past three hundred years “since the French revolution” France has switched from both democratic and authoritarian regimes as well as failed 3rd and 4th republics which struggled with the order and power. In modern times France has the 5th republic which is a unitary presidential system which gives the power to the president “François Holland” and to the Prime Minister “Manuel Valls” as well as the cabinet. This may seem like a stable system of governing but in fact it is not, the reason for this is because there is a chance for cohabitation.

However they do have an old reliable industrial system starting with the textile industry and now with their technology and automobiles. Because of their existing domestic products, it makes them more economically stable than France despite the euro zone hit. Germany has the one of the, if not the best economies in Europe. The reason for this is because of their massive GDP, the old saying “nothing beats German engineering” is true for a reason. Germany produces a huge percent of the world vehicles and other technology goods that bring in so much revenue to the country. So when the Euro zone crisis hit they came out basically unscathed and their GDP did not dip much because consumers were still
