erly province of Prussia, by which it
was acquired in 1815.
Next in sine is Alsace-Lorraine.
Torn from France after the Franco-
Prussian war, its restoration to the
mother country has been one 61 the
clile-f points upon which the allies
have insisted in outlintee their terms.
Its area is 5,600 square miles, and its
popuiatlm about 1,875,000, The prin-
cipal towns are Metz, Strassburg, Mul-
haussen and Kolmar, It contains the
great iron ore district of Lriey, one
of the principal sources of German
supply, and the extensive Saar coal
fields, Its textile industrres are among
the most important in Germany.
The Palatinate is part of Bavaria,
which acquired it in 1815. It is 2,372
square miles in extent, and has about
950,000 inhabitants. it is chiefly a
farming and wine growing country,
although there are sotne large manu-
facturing lndastires. The capital is
Speyer.
Eerkefeld is a principality belong-
ing to, although detache:t from, the
Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. It is en-
closed in the Rhino province. Its area
is 194 square utiles, and its popula-
tion about 45,000.
The total area of the Grand Duchy
of Besse, about one-third 'at which lies
west of the :thine; is 2,965 and its
population 1,3'0,000. The capital of
Hesse, which is on the west bank of
the Rhine, is Mainz, one of the prin-
cipal fortressyt of Gern...ny,
Evacuation of this territory also
frees from Gernan ctntrol the nom-
inally independent Grand Duchy of
Luxemburg, which, invaded by Ger-
many, at the bega h:ng of the war,
has•beelt completely under Its control
since that time.
