	Election Resources on the Internet: Elections to the German Bundestag
		As a result, for the 1953 election the five percent threshold was set at the federal level, and the number of parties represented in the legislature dropped to seven.
		The Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) consists of a lower house, the Bundestag, whose members are directly elected by universal adult suffrage, and an upper house, the Bundesrat, composed of representatives appointed by the Länder.
		Prior to the German reunification of 1990 (in which the Länder of the German Democratic Republic were incorporated into the FRG), there were 496 seats in the chamber: for the post-reunification legislative elections held in 1990, 160 seats were added to represent the new Länder and Berlin, for a total of 656 seats.

	The Chancellor of Germany - German Government and Politics
		The federal government consists of the chancellor and his or her cabinet ministers.
		For that reason, some observers refer to the German political system as a "chancellor democracy." The chancellor's authority emanates from the provisions of the Basic Law and from his or her status as leader of the party or coalition of parties holding a majority of seats in the Bundestag.
		Every four years, after national elections and the seating of the newly elected Bundestag members, the federal president nominates a chancellor candidate to that parliamentary body; the chancellor is elected by majority vote in the Bundestag.

	Germany History \| iExplore.com
		It is often said that the Germanic tribes destroyed the Roman Empire, but the Visigoths, Ostrogoths and Franks who settled in Western Europe after the deposition of the Emperor Romulus in AD 476 were anxious to perpetuate some parts of a system which they both admired and found administratively convenient.
		German unification continued apace throughout the century, the most influential figure in the process being Count (later Prince) Otto von Bismarck, Chancellor under Emperor Wilhelm I. Various wars, both offensive and defensive, were fought with other European states, of which the most notable was the Franco-Prussian War (1870-71).
		The Federal Republic was established in September 1949, under the supervision of the three Western allied powers – the USA, the UK and France.

	Germany at the UN (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Federal Republic was a very welcome contributor, and a substantial part of the diplomatic activity of the German Foreign Office consisted of making it impossible for the GDR to join any of the specialized agencies.
		Wherever it could, the Federal Republic attempted to hinder this, but it was unable to keep the number of ambassadors accredited in East Berlin at a low level.
		A global commitment of this kind would have once been rejected with the argument that German troops could neither be deployed outside the NATO area nor in locations where German soldiers had fought during the Second World War, which had left very little room for any engagement of this kind.
