I explicitly said "at least a state".
But my request you tried to answer asked explicitely for countries.
Because Germany is a republic of former countries, which are accordingly called "Länder" i.e. countries.
In German, yes these are called "Länder", but in this case it does not translate to "countries".

Thank you for enlightening me, I would have never guessed and intentionally played to that dual meaning, giving you tons of hints to get it.
Why would you do that? How on earth would I think this ia anything than a serious discussion?
