# Germany
never got any reperations after the war. It's just that nobody actually made them pay the reperations they were landed with. also, they weren't allowed any military spending, so they had loads of extra cash for industry.

Incidentally, i think we were just about the only country to pay back what the world bank loaned us to rebuild after WWII. Mugs.

No-one else bothered.
