State Questions: Hessen

Hessen sits in the middle of Germany with around 6.3 million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden, and Frankfurt am Main — Germany's largest financial hub and home to the European Central Bank, the Bundesbank, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange — is the largest city. Hessen was the first German state to adopt its own constitution in December 1946, even before the Federal Basic Law.
