<p>[QUOTE="Daggarjon, post: 411367, member: 4230"]Ok (it does seem like i am again talking to myself, in which case, i admited in another post, i learn nothing lol) i got a little lucky when searchig the two names today. It does seem that Thuringia the same 'state' as Thueringen. Thuringia is like an english translation, and Thuringen is the german translation. Not sure why the book i am using shows an 'E' in Thueringen, but thats a different story.</p><p><br /></p><p>Wikipedia has a nice page talking about the state. (yes, it is a state). Wiki had this to say...</p><p>"The Free State of Thuringia (German: Freistaat Thüringen) is located in central Germany. It has an area of 16,171 square kilometers (6,243.7 sq mi) and 2.29 million inhabitants, making it the sixth smallest by area and the fifth smallest by population of Germany's sixteen Bundesländer (federal states). The capital is Erfurt."</p><p><br /></p><p>I also leanred, that each state is divided up into districts. So like the US, Germany has 4 levels of community Heirarchy, they just call em' different.
