Federal Republic of Germany，
Due to central location of Europe, Germany shares borders with a total of nine neighbouring European countries. The Federal Republic extends from the Alps in the south to the North and Baltic Seas.
As a federal system, the German Federal Republic consists of 16 federal states, whose state governments partly take on their own state duties. 

Baden-Württemberg is one of the most modern industrial locations in the world. Its economic strength and low unemployment levels contribute to its attractiveness.
