I'll have to vote for the microscope. I love biology. Fun fact: Did you know that you cannot actually observe any living creatures under electron microscope, because the high energy electron beam will instantly kill any of them? :D

Didn't knew that.But on the other hand it's logical. It says Electron Microscope.
The sample must be placed in a vacuum and prepared in a way that kills the organism. The high-energy electron beam can also damage biological structures.

Sorry, but you are missing the most important invention of the past 1000 years.  It did more to bring the world out of the dark ages than anything else.

The answer?

Johannes Gutenburg (German) invented the PRINTING PRESS.

The second greatest German contribution to the world was probably Martin Luther and the start of the Protestant Reformation.
