Germany

The territory extends from northern coasts to southern mountains, encompassing sixteen states each with its own parliament. Large cities such as Berlin, Munich, and Hamburg stand alongside vast forests, river valleys and mountain ranges that shape the geography.

After the Second World War two separate states formed under different political systems divided by border installations and the Berlin Wall. Reunification happened in October 1990 bringing both parts together after the wall came down in November 1989.

Weekly markets bring local farmers and bakers into town squares where residents buy bread, cheese, and seasonal vegetables directly from producers. Many communities gather in beer gardens or wine taverns during warmer months, continuing social traditions that revolve around regional beverages and simple meals.

High-speed trains link regions while toll-free motorways form the road network and international airports offer direct connections to other continents. Public transport runs on timetables with ticket systems that integrate city and regional travel.

More than four hundred zoos and animal parks spread across the land with some facilities coordinating breeding programs for endangered species. The path network includes over 124,000 miles (200,000 kilometers) of marked hiking trails through varied natural landscapes.
