13. Deutschland - Brasilien, Tag der Briefmarke, Stamp 2024
One of the first countries that recognized stamps as the means of postal correspondence was Brazil. In 1822, it gained independence from Portugal and became an empire under the emperor Dom Pedro II.
He led the country to economic growth and international trade, which required postal stamp usage.
In 1842, shortly after the Penny Black was released, the government of Brazil signed a special decree. It standardized postage rates and introduced stamps as the prepayment of mail. On August 1, 1843, Brazil became the second independent nation to issue stamps in denominations of 30, 60, and 90 réis. Now they are highly valued in philately.
Germany was one of the first countries with which Brazil started its trade and economic relationships. Remembering this period in history, Deutsche Post released a postal set, celebrating 200 years since the first letter had been sent from Brazil to Germany.
14. City of Siegen: 800th Anniversary, Stamp 2024
The postmark displays Siegen, a city in Germany. It's located in North Rhine-Westphalia. The city is famous for its history, originating from the Middle Ages. It all started with the mining activities in the region.
The city has a wonderful landscape, surrounded by hills and forests. Siegen's cultural attractions include its historic Siegerland Museum and the impressive Upper Castle. The city is also home to a vibrant university community, contributing to its youthful and dynamic atmosphere. In 2024, Siegen celebrates its 800th birthday, and Deutsche Post has released the commemorative stamp.
15. Immanuel Kant: 300th Birthday Anniversary, Stamp 2024
Immanuel Kant is a key philosopher of the Enlightenment and one of the greatest thinkers in Western philosophy. Due to his impressive intelligence, he started high school at eight years old and entered university at the age of 16, which was too early at that time.
In 1770, he became a professor of logic and metaphysics at the University of Königsberg, maintaining a remarkably strict routine for the rest of his life. His students even joked they could check their watches by his daily timetable.
In 2024, Deutsche Post released a commemorative stamp, honoring the 300th birthday of this outstanding philosopher and genius.
16. Unterwasser Fauna und Flora: Aquatic ecosystem, Stamp 2024
More than 70% of the Earth's covered by water, which makes aquatic ecosystems very diverse habitats with many species. Water animals and plants beautifully coexist together, supporting biodiversity on our planet.
In 2024, Deutsche Post released this stamp to attract people's attention to the aquatic environment and remind us of our duty to care for the water inhabitants of the Earth.
