In Germany, municipalities (in German, "Gemeinden") are the smallest administrative units in the country and play a crucial role in local governance. Germany's administrative structure is organized into several tiers: 1. **Federal Level**: Germany is a federal republic consisting of 16 states (Länder), each with its own government. 2. **State Level**: Each state is further divided into districts (Kreise) and independent cities (kreisfreie Städte).
