replies: text: I changed the date when Germany's Deutsche Mark became Saarland's currency. According to a German-speaking description of Saarland's history, Saarland returned to Germany (Federal Republic of Germany, that is) on January 1, 1959, still using French Franc as its currency; Germany's Deutsche Mark replaced it on July 6, 1959. The text says: Am 6. Juli 1959 folgte die wirtschaftliche Rückgliederung aus dem französischen in den deutschen Wirtschaftsraum, bei der u.a. in einem Währungsumtausch der Franken durch die Mark ersetzt wurde.

replies: text: Its value was ten DM, before and after July 6th, 1959. By the way, your edit in Psycho Chicken's comment in the language section below changed the meaning of the sentence. --Pp.paul.4 (talk) 21:11, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

message: While it's a very attractive map, full of colour, the Saarland 1793 Map is missing something that I feel is very vital to understanding the full message of a map: context. There is not a single city/town name anywhere on the map. Only the scale tells me that I'm actually looking at a small region. Before I noticed that, I thought I was looking at a major chunk of Central Europe. I'm guessing that the area shown in this map is simply an enlargement of the highlighted area in the first map on the page but it would be great for the map itself to confirm that in some way. For all I know, it shows some significant part of the territory surrounding the Saarland as well. Some city/town names and/or state/country names would help. So would the addition of a little bit of the surrounding territory with the names of those neighbours indicated on the map.

thread_title:  Meaning of Saar 

message: CURRENT WP:
The Saarland's unification with the Federal Republic of Germany was sometimes referred to as the Kleine Wiedervereinigung (little reunification in contrast with the post-Cold War absorption of the GDR (Die Wende)).
-------------------------------------------
This is plain false. "Die Wende" was the 1989 inner revolution of the GDR (DDR), i.e.,  the fall of communism. It is NOT a synonyme of "Wiedervereinigung" which is the proper word in German for Reunification. The -Wiedervereinigung- was a consequence, and happened later than the -Wende-.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by LMSchmitt (talk • contribs) 22:52, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
