Die Welt Newspaper Information

Die Welt (The World) is a German national daily newspaper published by the Axel Springer AG company. It was founded in Berlin in 1946 by the British occupying forces, aiming to provide a "quality newspaper" modelled on The Times. It originally carried news and British-viewpoint editorial content, but from 1947 it adopted a policy of providing two leading articles on major questions, one British and one German. At its peak in the occupation period, it had a circulation of around a million.
