Germany

The Federal Republic of Germany is a country in west central Europe with a population of around 82.4 million people.


Germany

It shares western borders with France, Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands. To the south, it is bordered by Austria and Switzerland and to the east by Poland and the Czech Republic. To the north it borders Denmark and the Baltic Sea.

It has the largest economy in Europe and the third largest economy in the world, behind the United States and Japan. The country is the world's largest exporter, with exports totalling $1.133 trillion from the beginning of 2006. It has a large trade surplus, standing at €165 billion in 2006. The west side of the country continues to enjoy a higher standard of living than the east - with unemployment in some parts of the formerly communist eastern sector topping 18 per cent.

Germany is a parliamentary federal republic, consisting of 16 states known as Bundeslander in German. The country was divided in two after World War II, but was reunified in 1990. It was one of the founding members of the EU and has the largest population among the EU founding states.

Most of Germany enjoys a cool temperate climate, dominated by humid westerly winds. Temperatures are moderated in the west by the North Atlantic Drift, an extension of the Gulf Stream. Winters are mild and summers tend to be relatively cool in these areas. In the east, the climate is more continental, with very cold winters and very warm and often dry summers.

Flights to and from a wide range of destination in Germany are available from a number of UK airports. The country is also easily accessible by road and rail.
