Deutschland : A Matching Exercise

 Landeskunde -- Die Bundesländer

You can find a blank map of Germany below that shows the borders of the federal states. The names of the Bundesländer are not on the map, but they are listed alphabetically beneath the map. Your task is to match the numbered Bundesländer with their names. Although this exercise has nothing to do with declination or conjugation, it does call for some background information on Germany that may be useful when conversing with Germans.
