Harvard tested its product appeal during its 350th anniversary in 1986, and has looked closely at trademark possibilities in Japan.

The U.S. reacted positively, though it did not endorse Kohl's plan. State Department spokesman Margaret Tutwiler said that "it should be no cause for concern that the Chancellor has laid out his vision for the future of Germany."
