States of Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1301 words)
Germany is a federal republic made up of 16 states, known in German as Länder (singular Land).
Gemeinden are ruled by elected councils and an executive, the mayor, who is chosen by either the council or the people, depending on the Bundesland.
