The Land of Lippe was a state in northwestern Germany. It followed the former Free State of Lippe in the British Zone and existed until its incorporation into the state of North Rhine-Westphalia on January 21, 1947.
Lippe was occupied by American troops in April 1945 and was assigned to the British administrative zone during the partition of Germany. The British military government appointed Heinrich Drake as the state president, the last democratic lippian state president until 1933. At the same time, he was at the head of Schaumburg-Lippe. However, Lippe did not enjoy full sovereignty because of the British occupation and the applicable occupation laws. Both the state parliament and the state president were appointed by the military government and had to accept the dissolution of the state against their will.
