Dresden (German pronunciation: [ˈdʁeːsdn̩]) is the capital city of the Free State of Saxony in Germany. It is situated in a valley on the River Elbe, near the Czech border.
Dresden has a long history as the capital and royal residence for the Electors and Kings of Saxony, who for centuries furnished the city with cultural and artistic splendour. The city was known as the Jewel Box, because of its baroque and rococo city centre. The controversial British and American bombing of Dresden in World War II towards the end of the war killed approximately 25,000, many of whom were civilians, and destroyed the entire city centre. The bombing gutted the city, as it did for other major German cities. After the war restoration work has helped to reconstruct parts of the historic inner city, including the Katholische Hofkirche, the Semper Oper and the Dresdner Frauenkirche as well as the suburbs.
Before and since German reunification in 1990, Dresden was and is a cultural, educational, political and economic center of Germany and Europe. The Dresden University of Technology is one of the 10 largest universities in Germany and part of the German Universities Excellence Initiative.
Frederick Augustus I (full name: Frederick Augustus Joseph Maria Anthony John Nepomuk Aloysius Xavier; German: Friedrich August Josef Maria Anton Johann Nepomuk Alois Xavier; Polish: Fryderyk August Józef Maria Antoni Jan Nepomucen Alojzy Ksawery Wettyn; 23 December 1750 – 5 May 1827) was King of Saxony (1805–1827) from the House of Wettin. He was also Elector Frederick Augustus III (Friedrich August III.) of Saxony (1763–1806) and Duke Frederick Augustus I (Polish: Fryderyk August I) of Warsaw (1807–1813).
An air force, also known in some countries as an air army, is in the broadest sense, the national military organization that primarily conducts aerial warfare. More specifically, it is the branch of a nation's armed services that is responsible for aerial warfare as distinct from an army, navy, or a marine corps. Typically, air forces are responsible for gaining control of the air, carrying out strategic and tactical bombing missions, and providing support to land and naval forces.
The term "air force" may also refer to a tactical air force or numbered air force, which is an operational formation either within a national air force or comprising several air components from allied nations. Air forces typically consist of a combination of fighters, bombers, helicopters, transport planes and other aircraft.
Many air forces are also responsible for operations of the military space, intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM), and communications equipment. Some air forces may command and control other air defence assets such as anti-aircraft artillery, surface-to-air missiles, or anti-ballistic missile warning networks and defensive systems. Some nations, principally Russia, the former Soviet Union and countries who modelled their militaries along Soviet lines, have an air defence force which is organizationally separate from their air force.

Bombing of Dresden was an attack on the city of Dresden, the capital of the German state of Saxony, that took place in the final months of the Second World War in the European Theatre. In four raids between 13 and 15 February 1945, 722 heavy bombers of the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and 527 of the (USAAF) dropped more than 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices on the city. The resulting firestorm destroyed fifteen square miles (39 square kilometres) of the city centre. Between 22,700 and 25,000 people were killed. Post-war discussion of whether or not the attacks were justified has led to the bombing becoming one of the moral causes célèbres of the war. A 1953 United States Air Force report defended the operation as the justified bombing of a military and industrial...

Dresden is one of the beautiful cities of Europe with great culture and history. It is hard to believe that this city was under the communist control just little more than two decades ago. The transformation is just unbelievable. You can't find traces from the communist regime. The quality of life of Germans in this part of world seems to be as high as in other parts of Germany.
National History Day Junior Individual Documentary 2008. About the Allied bombing of Dresden and its relevance to the modern day. I'd like to say that I like the fact there are still people interested in the content of this documentary, but having seen why I'm starting to feel terrible about it. Yes, I did mispronounce Hiroshima. I can't believe no-one's called me out on that yet.
This was a trip I took last year with these guys to the beautiful city of Dresden. I filmed a vlog, got lazy, and never edited it. So here it is now. I know my vlogging skills weren't as good back then so I didn't have much commentary on the actual city, but I absolutely loved it. Definitely a different look and feel than Southern Germany. It was cool to see different the different types of architecture and to learn about the incredible history that this city has been through. Thanks for watching!

The video is the depiction through story and silent narrative of the real Holocaust that was delivered to a densely populated city of refugees, fleeing from a war that was forced upon them on September 3rd 1939. I have also included Herbert Smagons paintings that depict other atrocities in conjunction with the Dresden fire bombings which took place on February 13-15 1945. To learn more in depth of this holocaust click the link below and watch the documentary "Hellstorm". It should be noted you need not be a National Socialist nor a German to lament these crimes against Humanity. The people of the world will arise and the truth will be known in the end.

A mini-documentary which I put together about the fire bombing of Dresden on the night February 13th to 14th, 1945 with eye-witness testimony, describing a heinous, outrageous, Allied War Crime and a story of survival. The footage comes from various German sources which I have translated and narrated into English. I will try to expand this in the future with more eye-witness testimony footage, but these clips will first need to be translated. Website: http://justice4germans.com/

I took a day trip from Prague to Dresden as it is a short 2 hour bus ride from Prague. Dresden is very easy to get to from Prague or vice versa. You can use student agency bus company or eurolines bus company. Total ticket price ranges from estimated 20-40 USD depending on several factors including the time of departure, date and seats available. The historical part of Dresden is very walkable and being near the Elbe river is great. Make sure to grab a beer at a beer garden along with some sausages. I suggest the currywurst (I may have spelled that wrong). https://www.studentagency.eu/en/ http://www.eurolines.com/en/ Music Dj Quads https://soundcloud.com/aka-dj-quads Song 'Wonderful World' and 'I Be Good'
