Germany booms despite Eurozone woes

  • 12 years ago
There was not much positive economic news out of Europe in 2011, but the new year got off to a good start in Germany at least.

The country's national statistics office has announced that more than half a million jobs were created last year despite the Eurozone crisis leaving that number at 82 million - a record for Europe's largest economy.
