The regional economic power of the 402 districts of Germany, measured by their gross value added per capita, was much more equal in 2014 than it was in 2000. This also applies to the 1,300 regions of the EU, even though within the old EU-15 countries, there was an increase in regional inequality. These are the findings of a new analysis by the ifo Institute.
