'''Saxony''' ([[German]]: ''Sachsen'') is a federal state (''Land'') of [[Germany]], situated in the east of the country, bordering the [[Czech Republic]] to its soouth and [[Poland]] to its east. It has an area of 7,110 square miles (18,416 sq km) and a population of 4.2 million. The capital city is [[Leipzig]]; other major centres include [[Dresden]], [[Chemnitz]] and [[Jena]]. Saxony was part of the former [[communist]] [[German Democratic Republic]], and was incorporated into the Federal Republic in 1990. Although it still suffers the after-effects of forty-five years of comunist dictatorship, it is the fastest-growing region in Germany.
