Is germany relative or absolute?

Question

i have a project to do for geography. and i need to know like everything about it. so if you could help me i would really appreciate it :)

Answer 1

well if you need to know alot about germany, go to www.CIA.com and it has something with countries, just click on that

Answer 2

i guess it is very, very vaguely absolute, since it names a specific place. however, absolute location applies to much more specific places such as a street address of latitude/longitude point.

relative location refers to comparing a place to another, such as saying _______ is east of france or on the other side of the mcdonalds on ______ street.

Answer 3

If you have the exact coordinates of a location it is absolute, like 52 8 N 9 35... however, if you can describe the area by where it is in relation to another object, time, distance, or by its' "relative" boarders it is relative.  In a way both are correct.  Relatively germany is situated north of austria, east of france, south of the netherlands.  However, there are several absolute locations, Berlin, Germany 52  30 N  13  25 E, Bremen, Germany  53  5 N  8  49 E, Frankfurt, Germany 50  7 N  8  41 E, etc.  Hope this helps some.  Most large land masses have relative location with absolute perameters.
