In America, 200 years are a long time; in Europe 200 km is a long distance.

200 km is the same distance everywhere, how "long" it actually ends up depends on the supporting infrastructure, and that's usually pretty good in Germany.

That saying is meant for a leisure trip, 200km is close by for almost any kind of industry these days.
