Lower Austria (‹See Tfd›German: Niederösterreich pronounced [ˈniːdɐˌʔøːstəʁaɪ̯ç] , abbreviated LA or NÖ; Austro-Bavarian: Niedaöstareich; Slovak: Dolné Rakúsko; Czech: Dolní Rakousy) is one of the nine states of Austria, located in the northeastern corner of the country. Major cities are Amstetten, Krems an der Donau, Wiener Neustadt and Sankt Pölten, which has been the capital of Lower Austria since 1986, replacing Vienna, which became a separate state in 1921. With a land area of 19,186 km2 (7,408 sq mi) and a population of 1.699 million people, Lower Austria is the largest and second-most-populous state in Austria (after Vienna).[4]
