Why is this answer correct?
North Rhine-Westphalia, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Saxony-Anhalt are among the 16 federal states. Alsace-Lorraine was part of the German Empire from 1871 to 1918 and today belongs to France; it is not a federal state.
Alsace-Lorraine belongs to France, not to Germany.
