Colonial Architecture?

[edit]

I am curious if there should be a section on the architecture of the rather short-lived German colonial empire.

I have read a bit on Wikipedia about the Chinese legation city of Tsing-tao (modern day Qingdao), and I was fascinated by the fact that a very brief German presence in China has maintained its impact by having the Tsingtao Brewery still be one of (if not the) top export beers of China. It seems that the city, though long since inhabited by Germans, is architecturally reminiscent of 1890s Germany.

I also wonder about the German architecture in Tanganyika, Südwestafrika, Togoland, Cameroon, New Guinea, and Samoa. If not making redirects, I think it is notable to include the architecture that the Germans forcefully exported as it has some lasting impact to this day.
