No. They were both much earlier firearms.
There are few German Mausers.. The main one is the K98 . This was the main issue weapon during WWII. During WWII one of the places K98s were built was in Yugoslavia. The folks in Yugoslavia learned how to make them. After the war they took and redesigned the K98s and designed and made their own models.... They used them in their own army after the war and sold them all over the world. The M48 is my favorite yugo Mauser .
Depends on the time period and the type of gun. During WWI, the main German infantry rifle was the 1898 Mauser. The main American rifle was the 1903 Springfield. Their designs are so close that US had to pay royalties to Mauser. US Army also made use of shotguns for trench warfare, while no other country did so. In WWII the standard German rifle was the Karabiner 98, which is still the same Mauser design. US was armed with the M1 Garand, which had higher ammunition capacity and a faster rate of fire that made it superior. WWII also saw the use of many other types of weapons, but in more limited numbers. Some of them had no direct counterparts on the other side of the conflict, such as the M1 Carbine. In pistols, German gun design has always tended to be more mechanically complex, where American gun design is more on the functional side.
Yes, there were German internment camps in America during World War II. These camps held German nationals, German Americans, and other individuals of German descent who were considered potential threats to national security.

Five rounds was typical... some variants of the Mauser held six... some G98 Mausers were modified during WWI to have a fixed 20 round magazine.
The German Gewehr 98 rifle and its derivatives. The reason behind this was because of the Mauser bolt-action design that was used in this rifle was so reliable and robust that it was copied by numerous other nations. The American Springfield 1903, for example, was almost a direct copy of the Gewehr 98. Springfield was actually sued by Mauser at one point because of the similaries.

Based on a single source* the Model 1912 7mm Mauser, very similar to the German Rifle Model 98 was a standard issue for the Mexican Army in 1935. Mexico adopted the 7mm Mauser Model 93, in 1895, a similar rifle to the Spanish 7mm Mauser Model 1993. During the period of 1910-1920 many difference rifles were obtained, including the Japanese Tpe 38 rifle. In 1936, a Mauser of Mexican design was adopted. The design was a 7mm Model 1936 designed from the Model 98 Mauser with an external "cocking" mechanism like a Springfield Model 1903A1. *Ezell, E. C.(1977).

The zigzag lines recorded on a seismograph are called seismic waves. These waves represent the vibrations of the Earth caused by the release of energy during an earthquake. The different patterns and sizes of the waves help scientists analyze the earthquake's characteristics.
