Explanation

After the Second World War, Germany was divided into two states until 1990: the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) in the west and the German Democratic Republic (GDR) in the east. Today's federal states were partly created from these earlier structures. The question examines which of today's federal states was formerly part of the GDR.
