A method for this quiz

Move from north to south and keep a separate mental check for the city-states. German names and the accepted translations work; when a keyboard has no umlaut, use the ae, oe or ue spelling.

What counts — and what does not

This is the modern sixteen-state structure. Historical kingdoms, districts and cities that are not themselves states do not add answers. Recalling the states is different from naming their capitals.
