In today's world, science and technology have become the primary productive forces, and the competition between countries is no longer only a competition of economic strength, but also a competition of scientific and technological strength. There are also different gaps in the field of science and technology between countries in the world.
A German magazine listed the "10 countries" with the strongest scientific and technological strength in the world, and these countries are also the most influential countries in the world. So who are these countries? Let's take a look!
Germany
For Germans, they also have a certain say in the field of science and technology, after all, Germany has many outstanding scientists, such as the famous German physicist Heisenberg, chemist Bohr, physicist Strauss, chemist Kekuler and so on.
These people are all highly accomplished in the field of technology. These people have all made great contributions to human society. Therefore, for Germans, they also have a certain say in the field of science and technology.
United States
In the eyes of the Germans, the United States is a powerful country, and the Germans have a very high opinion of the United States, but it is worth noting that the Germans are not the most active participating countries in some of the major scientific and technological research projects carried out by the United States.
The main reason why Germany does not participate in some of the major scientific and technological research projects carried out by the United States is that the United States does not have a high profit in many scientific and technological projects.
For example, the United States has gained very little from satellite launches. Although the United States has gained huge benefits in the field of satellite launches, it does not mean that the United States can also obtain huge benefits in other scientific and technological fields.
In many major scientific and technological projects, the Germans also recognize the contribution of the United States.
Finland
In the eyes of many Germans, China has always been a big country in science and technology, and the systems we use today and the Nokia brand that we are very familiar with are all from Finland, although Finland has a small population, but it has always been among the best in the field of scientific and technological innovation.
United Kingdom
Germany is also very familiar with the UK. For Germany, Britain is a country with a long history and was once one of the largest industrial nations in the world. Both Germany and Britain played a crucial role in the Industrial Revolution, and it is precisely because of the existence of these two countries that there are so many inventions in the world.
In the field of science and technology, the Germans consider the UK to have one of the largest numbers of scientists and engineers in the world. This number may surprise many people, but it is a real fact.
Japan
In fact, the Germans also have a relatively high opinion of Japan, mainly because in the eyes of the Germans, Japan's scientific and technological strength is still very strong. As early as World War II, Japan had mastered many cutting-edge technologies and became one of the strongest countries in the world at that time.
After World War II, Japan, as a defeated country, was also greatly sanctioned and hit, and its economy was also greatly damaged. However, Japan has gradually regained its economic strength and technological strength since then. Today, Japan is home to many high-tech companies, many of which have become world-renowned companies.
France
France and Germany are both European countries, and there are gaps of varying degrees between the two countries in terms of economic strength and scientific and technological strength. Although both countries are European countries, in the eyes of the Germans, France's scientific and technological strength is far inferior to that of Germany.
Even many Germans consider France to be a "backward" country, and in their eyes, France does not have the scientific and technological prowess. The main reason for this is that the industrial development of France is not particularly developed.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, France is just a "European garden", and there is a certain gap between France and Germany in terms of scientific and technological strength.
Italy
Italy is a country with a long history, many excellent traditions, and at the same time an economic powerhouse as well as an artistic powerhouse.
Italy is also very strong in terms of economic development. Italy is home to many top research institutes and universities, as well as many well-known companies in Italy. In the eyes of the Germans, Italy is a country with great potential.
Sweden
In the eyes of the Germans, which countries have the strongest scientific and technological strength in Sweden? In the field of science and technology in the world, Sweden has a very high level of development, and Sweden is also one of the few developed countries in the world.
Sweden has a very high level of industry and a very developed industrial manufacturing industry. And according to relevant data, Sweden is also very high in the global R&D expenditure ranking.
It can be seen that Sweden's scientific and technological strength in the eyes of the Germans is also very strong.
Canada
Canada has a pivotal position in the aerospace and electronics sectors, and is one of the world's leading companies in the number of research institutions and companies related to scientific and technological innovation.
Germans believe that Canada is a country that attaches great importance to education, and when it comes to education, Canada gives students a lot of freedom. In addition, Canadian universities also attach great importance to the development of scientific research.
Israel
Israel's scientific and technological strength has always attracted the attention of various countries, and many countries want to know what the country's scientific and technological strength is, so what is Israel in the eyes of the Germans?
In the eyes of the Germans, Israel is a very small country, with a very small land area and a population of only about 2.6 million, but Israel has a very high status in the fields of military, electronic information, and medicine.
In addition, Israel was also one of the first countries in the world to use nuclear weapons in actual combat, and many international students are now keen to study in Israel.
