German Geography:
The Federal Republic of Germany shares frontiers with Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Poland and Switzerland. The landscape is exceedingly varried, with the Rhine, Bavaria and the Black Forest being the most famous features of Western Germany. In eastern Germany the country is lake-studded with undulating lowlands which give way to the hills and mountains of Lausitzer Bergland., the Saxon Hills in the Elbe Valley and the Erzgebirge, while the Thuringian and Harz ranges in the central part.
