Austria is a federal republic made up of nine states, known in German as 'Länder' (singular 'Land'). Since 'Land' is also the German word for "country", the term 'Bundesländer' ("federation states"; singular 'Bundesland') is often used instead to avoid ambiguity. The Constitution of Austria uses both terms. In English, the term '(Bundes)land' is commonly rendered as "state" or "province".
These nine states are
- Burgenland (In German: Burgenland)
- Carinthia (In German: Kärnten)
- Lower Austria (In German: Niederösterreich)
- Upper Austria (In German: Oberösterreich)
- Salzburg (In German: Salzburg)
- Styria (In German: Steiermark)
- Tyrol (In German: Tirol)
- Vorarlberg (In German: Vorarlberg)
- Vienna (In German: Wien)
