(By the way, I am at the Santa Fe Institute for the summer, but will be back at Yale in September; mail gets to me at either address). The sixteen german lands, along with most-talked-about cities listed under the land they are located in. (Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen are seperate lands). I used the standard German pronunciation rather than that of the residents of these places themselves.
