Left-Extremist Endeavours

2.3 Breakdown of Violent Offences by Land
[federal state]
In 1999, most acts of violence with a proven or suspected rightextremist
background occurred in North Rhine/Westphalia, the
Land with the highest population figure. When the number of acts
of violence is correlated with the large population, this Land
ranges among the last quarter of the statistics of acts of violence
per 100,000 inhabitants. On the other hand, the high incidence of
such acts continues unabated in the East German Länder. On an
average, the rate of acts of violence per 100,000 inhabitants was
2.19 in East Germany, and 0.68 in the West German Länder.
