About:
The Federal Republic of Germany lies in the heart of Europe. It is a cosmopolitan, democratic country with a rich tradition as well as a vibrant modern life. Germany has one of the world’s strongest economies and offers an innovative research and education
landscape. At the same time, it has a strong creative economy and a dynamic cultural scene. Germany is the European Union’s most populous nation with over 82 million inhabitants.
Germany is surrounded by nine neighbouring countries. Its territory encompasses roughly 357,000 square kilometers, stretching from the North Sea and the Baltic Sea in the north to the Alps in the south. Some of the largest European rivers – the Rhine, the
Danube and the Elbe – flow through the country. German landscapes are extraordinarily varied and attractive: low and high mountain ranges, extensive lake districts, forests, and roughly 2,390 kilometres of coastline.
Since 1949 the Federal Republic of Germany has been a democratic parliamentary federation. It is made up of 16 Länder (states), each with its own constitution, parliament and government. The highest government authority lies with the federation. In addition
to the German Bundestag (federal parliament), the Bundesrat (federal council) of delegates from Länder governments also participates in the legislative process at the federal level.
