Angela Merkel has dominated European politics for over a decade. However, with populism on the rise, her party suffered a poor result in the 2017 elections. After quarrels in her coalition, she decided to step down as leader of her party. This mini documentary covers her early career, all the way until her 'resignation' speech in late 2018.
★ NOTE ON SOURCING IN CAPTIONS▼▼▼▼▼▼▼
I've added a citation system into my closed captioning. In order to be respectful to the hard of hearing members of this community, I've tried to make this as non-intrusive as possible., so as not to distract from reading.
At the end of a sentence with sourcing, something like this will appear:
"The sky is blue. The ocean is blue (17,89)."
In this example, the 1st number represents the source # from the source list in the description.
The 2nd number represents the page number, if the source is a book.
