Total Titles Won By State
Germany is divided into 16 states (Länder) and regional football associations in the country have historically been organized along similar lines. There are 22 regional football associations with most of them covering exactly one state while some cover only parts of one state. Austria was part of Germany between 1938 and 1946 when Rapid Wien took the championship in 1941.

Famous quotes containing the words total, titles, won and/or state:
“For youth is a frail thing, not unafraid.
Firstly inclined to take what it is told.
Firstly inclined to lean. Greedy to give
Faith tidy and total. To a total God.”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
“We have to be despised by somebody whom we regard as above us, or we are not happy; we have to have somebody to worship and envy, or we cannot be content. In America we manifest this in all the ancient and customary ways. In public we scoff at titles and hereditary privilege, but privately we hanker after them, and when we get a chance we buy them for cash and a daughter.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“The belief in immortality has always seemed cowardly to me. When very young I learned that all things die, and all that we wish of good must be won on this earth or not at all.”
—Anne Smedley (c. 1894–1950)
“The state has no religion for the simple reason that it has each and everyone.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
