Nairobi; Kenya: Adolf Hitler, for all the ills and misery he caused Germany and the modern world by introducing fascism and igniting the Second World, is at least remembered for one thing: he built major highways in his country which remain to this very day. Though his purpose was to provide proper means of transport for war mongering and military control, the roads could not go with him to the grave when his evil purpose was defeated. The autobahn remains Germany’s pride to this very day.
In the USA, soon after the Second World War, the government embarked on a major project of highway construction. Some people argue that this was pushed by the automobile industry eager to promote their business over and above that of the railroad industry. Others point out that General Eisenhower was so enthralled by Hitler’s autobahn that he decided to outdo the fallen Führer.
