Germany is located in north-central Europe. There have
been few changes during the last two centuries on the western border with
France, Belgium, and The Netherlands, but the border in the east with Poland has
been redrawn several times in the same period and now lies along the Oder and
Neisse rivers. Part of Germany's eastern border is shared with Czechoslovakia.
The southern German borders with Austria and Switzerland are more clearly
defined by the ranges of the Alps and by Lake Constance. The boundary between
West and East Germany did not follow natural features to any extent but was a
result of thhe division of Germany into zones of occupation after World War II.
Germany's total area is about 138,000 square miles (357,000 square kilometers).
It extends about 500 miles (800 kilometers) from north to south and about 400
miles (640 kilometers) from east to west at its widest.
