actually for this example you're wrong, the official name is "Zwettl-Niederösterreich", you can see this for instance here: http://www.statistik.at/blickgem/gemDetail.do?gemnr=32530 or in this law: http://www.ris.bka.gv.at/Dokumente/LgblNO/LRNI_2011122/LRNI_2011122.pdf > > > And another question, is this also aiming at city titles, e.g. > > "Universitätsstadt", "Freie und Hansestadt"? > > No. There are plenty of these bogus titles for each city. I don't think "bogus" is the correct term here, have a look at the constitution of the "Freie und Hansestadt Hamburg", Art. 1 (name): http://www.hamburg.de/contentblob/1604280/data/verfassung-2009.pdf cheers, Martin
