Detailed Solution

Germania became the allegory of the German nation. In the 19th century, to represent the nation in Europe, female figures were invented by the artist Marianne and Germania. During the Revolutions of 1848, by the end of March, a painting was created which is known as Germania at present. This allegorical figure is represented by the oak, a leaf that represents German strength, whereas an olive branch is a symbol of peace and a banner. Germania is the allegory of Germany, which is the symbol of a united, democratic Germany. Similarly, in France, Marianne is a popular name that showcases the idea of a people's nation.
