Politics of Hamburg

The bases of the political system are the Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany and the Constitution of the Free and Hanseatic city of Hamburg.

The Free and Hanseatic city of Hamburg is its own state in the Federal Republic of Germany. Hamburg is a republic, democratic welfare state and a constitutional state. At the same time Hamburg is a municipality, there is no separation between these two administrative tasks.[1] The power to create a law is restricted by federal law.

There is a clear separation of powers.

The two main parties are the centre-left Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) and the left-wing Alliance 90/The Greens (Green).
