Why is Nuremberg in there? there is no "burg" in Nuremberg or Nürnberg (in german). Should be removed.

Edit: Heidelberg too.

It's in the instruction even though the title alone is kinda missleading. Anyway it's a weird choice to combine them both since the have completly different meanings (burg=castle and berg=mountain)

Also kinda weird to write "baden" as a state, although there really is not state called baden, it is called "baden-württemberg"

„North Rhine“, „Baden“, and „Schleswig“ are not currently states of Germany, and Ludwigsburg is not even in the „Baden“ part of BW, it's in Württemberg. (If it helps to conserve space, you can write NRW for North Rhine-Westphalia.)
