While Lady Edith Crawley is discussing with Michael Gregson the progress he has made in discovering a way to divorce his lunatic wife, Gregson tells her that he has discovered he can divorce her if he becomes a German citizen. To this, Lady Edith replies in reference to Gregson being willing to become a German citizen because he loves Lady Edith, "After four years of fighting you would join the most hated RACE in Europe for me."
Lady Edith made a factual error in that Germany is a country and German is a nationality. German is not a race. There are Germans of all different races.
