Braunschweig (German Regierungsbezirk Braunschweig) was one of the eight former administrative regions ( Regierungsbezirke) of Lower Saxony, Germany. It was located in the southeast of the state.
The region covers roughly the area of the former state of Brunswick-Lüneburg. It was founded in 1978 out of 'Verwaltungsbezirk Braunschweig'. At the end of 2004, all Regierungsbezirke of Lower Saxony were dissolved. [2]
The other seven were Regierungsbezirk Aurich, Regierungsbezirk Hannover, Regierungsbezirk Hildesheim, Regierungsbezirk Lüneburg, Regierungsbezirk Osnabrück, Regierungsbezirk Stade and Regierungsbezirk Weser-Ems. 'Verwaltungsbezirk Oldenburg' was dissolved in June 1977 and became part of Regierungsbezirk Weser-Ems.
The region of Braunschweig was (2005/6) the most R&D-intensive area in the whole European Economic Area[ clarification needed] investing 7.1% of its GDP for research & technology. [3]
