Hamburg is a major port city situated on the Elbe River in northern Germany. 1,740,000 inhabitants make it Germany's second largest city. The Greater Hamburg Metropolitan Region has a population of 4 million.
Hamburg is a city-state; it values its status as a "free city", being as far as possible independent of other states that existed and exist in Germany. Nevertheless, during the centuries, Hamburg has always been an international city, not only because of its position in international trade, but also in political dimensions.
