The extreme points of medieval Germany are mentioned in Das Lied der Deutschen. They were in part no longer accurate when the song was penned, because Austria and Flanders had different affiliations by then. The borders mentioned are the rivers Meuse/Maas which crosses France, Belgium and the Netherlands, the Neman River, which runs through Belarus and Lithuania, the Adige in South Tyrol, Italy, and the Belt, which is today a part of Denmark
