Saarland is one of the 16 states 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). 

With 65.1 percent, it is the most Catholic state in Germany, 
being one of two states (the other one being Bavaria) that has a majority Catholic population. 

Its location between French and German powers has given Saarland a unique history, 
and it was the only state to join the Bundesrepublik between its formation in 1949 and 
the German reunification in 1990.
