Hamburg is a city-state in Germany, formerly part of the Hanseatic League, located on the Elbe River estuary. With about 1.85 million inhabitants, it is the second most populous city in Germany, after the capital Berlin, and it is also the most populous non-capital city in the European Union.

The Port of Hamburg is one of the most important ports in the world which, together with the international airport, makes Hamburg an important global logistics centre. From an economic point of view, the metropolis is recognized in the fields of aerospace technology, life sciences, information technology, as well as the consumer goods industry and the media.

Since 1996 Hamburg has also been the seat of the International Tribunal of the Law of the Sea (TIDM). Hamburg, in line with its Hanseatic past, still constitutes a city-state today and officially bears the title of Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg.

In 2019 a study by the global consultancy Mercer ranked Hamburg 19th among the 20 cities in the world with the best quality of life. Hamburg sits on the banks of the River Elbe (Elbe in German) in northwestern Germany. It is a city-state (Stadtstaat), located between the Länder of Lower Saxony (Niedersachsen) and Schleswig-Holstein.
