About the Brandenburg Gate:
The Brandenburg Gate (German: Brandenburger Tor) is a triumphal arch, the symbol
of Berlin, Germany. Located on the Pariser Platz, it is the only remaining one
of the series of gates through which one entered Berlin.
About the E-100:
The E-100 project was commissioned in order to standardize parts. It was to
be built in classes of varying sizes to replace existing vehicles. Different
types were designated a number indicating their weight in tons: E 10, E 25,
E 50 (Panther replacement), E 75 (Tiger replacement) and E 100.
Of these only the E-100 project was actually started. Construction of the E-100
prototype proceeded slowly at Henschel's test plant after Hitler's order to
cease work on super-heavy tanks, and at the end of the war only the bare hull
and suspension were completed.
