Saarland (pronounced [ˈzaːɐ̯lant] in German; French: Sarre) is one of the 16 federal states (German: Bundesländer) of Germany. The capital is Saarbrücken. It has an area of 2570 km² and 1,045,000 inhabitants. In both area and population it is the smallest of the German Flächenländer ("area states"), i.e., those that are not City States (Berlin, Bremen and Hamburg). Its location between French and German powers has given Saarland a unique history. It was the only state to join the Bundesrepublik between its formation in 1949 and the German reunification in 1990. With 65.1 percent of the population being Catholic, it is one of two states (the other being Bavaria) that has a majority Catholic population and is the most Catholic state in Germany.
