      There was a lot of mixing in Germany in the past,so don’t be shock to found out that she is.Even hilter had African heritage,they did a Dna test on his family

        It’s actually the other way round.

        Barbaric /Germanic tribes have basically invaded/colonized any parts of Europe in the past, reaching North Africa too. Nobody really ever invaded Germany.
