Il campionato di calcio tedesco è posto sotto l'egida della DFB, la federazione calcistica della Germania. Il sistema calcistico tedesco consiste un una serie di leghe legate tra di loro gerarchicamente tramite promozioni e retrocessioni.

[modifica] Struttura dei campionati
I due massimi livelli constano di due divisioni, la Erste Bundesliga (letteralmente prima lega federale), meglio nota come Bundesliga, e la Zweite Bundesliga (letteralmente seconda lega federale). Entrambi questi campionati hanno 18 squadre.
Le ultime tre classificate della Bundesliga retrocedono nella Zweite Bundesliga e sono rimpiazzate dalle prime tre classificate in Zweite Bundesliga. Le ultime quattro squadre della classifica della Zweite Bundesliga retrocedono nella Regionalliga (letteralmente lega regionale), divisa in due gironi: Sud e Nord.
La Regionalliga è il livello più alto dove è concesso di giocare alle squadre di riserve della Bundesliga. Le squadre-riserve sono spesso chiamate "squadre dilettantistiche", ma impropriamente, dato che si tratta a tutti gli effetti di club professionistici, dipendenti dalle ben più note squadre della Bundesliga.
Il quarto livello del sistema calcistico tedesco è la Oberliga. In verità vi sono nove Divisioni Oberliga (Nord, Nordost-Nord, Nordost-Süd, Nordrhein, Westfalen, Südwest, Hessen, Baden-Württemberg, Bayern). Il sistema dei campionati al di sotto della Oberliga rispecchia la struttura federale della Federazione calcistica tedesca e la sua suddivisione in 21 associazioni calcistiche regionali con rispettive Verbandsliga, il livello più alto sotto la loro giurisdizione. La loro area area geografica di competenza corrisponde in larga misura alla struttura territoriale della Germania post-bellica della metà degli anni Quaranta, quando furono fondate.
A causa dell'autonomia delle associazioni regionali i livelli del sistema subordinato alla Verbandsliga differiscono per nome, dimensione e area geografica coperta. Qui al piano più basso c'è la cosiddetta Kreisklasse, il livello distrettuale, con un numero di sottodivisioni gerarchiche variabile da uno a cinque. Di queste sottodivisioni la più bassa si colloca dall'undicesimo al quattordicesimo livello del sistema calcistico della Germania.
[modifica] Sviluppo storico
[modifica] 1903 - 1934
Until the foundation of the German Football Association there had already been lots of different regional and district championships resp. leagues and it was not until 1906 that there was a consistent mode to determine the participants of the German championship that was played as a final tournament until the foundation of the Bundesliga. For that reason football in Germany was divided into seven regions which had their own regional championships (that were mostly played as a cup tournament, too). Only the regional champions and the defending German champion were qualified to play in the championship until 1924, when the number of final tournament participants was increased to 16.
As there were no regional top-level league established the system of many parallel leagues and divisions continued up to the 1933/34 season.
[modifica] 1934 - 1944
Following the Establishment of National Socialism in Germany in 1933 there were tendencies to centralise the football competition system, too. So in 1934 the Gauliga (county league) system was initiated as a system of 16 top-level divisions similar in strength that replaced the more than thirty previous top-level divisions. The champion of each Gauliga was qualified to play in the German championship tournament. The number of Gau leagues increased because of league division for economic reasons (transport costs) and territory annexion (WWII) to 31 in 1944.
[modifica] 1947 - 1963
After World War Two the Oberliga system developed out of the occupation zone championships. The first teams of the five top-level divisions (Nord, West, Südwest, Süd, Westberlin) qualified for the German championship tournament. From 1949 until 1991 the German Democratic Republic had its own football league system.
[modifica] 1963 - 1973
Since the 1930's there were plans to establish a nationwide professional top-level league, but they all failed because of the opposition by the relatively strong regional football associations. In summer 1962, under the influence of the Fifa World Cup quarter finals defeat by Yugoslavia, the German Football Association decided to establish the Bundesliga as a nationwide professional football league. The previous Oberliga became as Regionalliga the second level of the German league system. Its five parallel divisions (Nord, West, Südwest, Süd, Stadtliga Berlin) corresponded with the previous Oberliga divisions.
In the first years it had 16 members but their number was increased to 18 in 1965. Two teams were relegated to the Regionalliga. The first two teams from each Regionalliga division and the champion of West Berlin competited in a promotion tournament in two groups, whose winner was promoted into the Bundesliga.
[modifica] 1974 - 1981
Soon it was obvious that the gap between the fully professionalised Bundesliga and the five Regionalliga divisions where also semi-professional and amateur clubs competited was too large. Teams relegated from the Bundesliga were in serious danger to become bankrupt. Some clubs tried to avoid this fate by fraudulent behaviour which led to the Bundesliga scandal in 1971.
To close the gap between first and second level the 2. Bundesliga was introduced. It was divided into a North and a South Division with 20 teams competing in each one. The champion of each division and the winner of a play-off between the two runners-up were promoted to the 1. Bundesliga. Three teams were relegated from the Bundesliga
[modifica] 1981 - 1994
In 1981 the two divisions of the 2. Bundesliga were merged into one nationwide division with 20 teams.
As the league systems of the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic were unificated in 1991 the number of teams competing in the Bundesliga was increased to twenty (2 East German teams, Hansa Rostock and Dynamo Dresden joining) in the first and 24 (6 teams, VfB Leipzig, Chemnitzer FC, FC Carl-Zeiss Jena, Rot-Weiß Erfurt, Hallescher FC, Stahl Brandenburg joining), that's why the 2. Bundesliga was divided into two parallel divisions for one season. In 1992 the number of competing teams in the 1. Bundesliga was re-decreased to 18 with four teams relegated and only two promoted from the second level. The 2. Bundesliga played one more season with 24 teams in one division, before its size was decreased to 20 members in 1993 and 18 in 1994.
[modifica] 1994 - 2000
In 1994 the Regionalliga was reestablished at the third level of the German football league system. It was divided into four divisions (Nord, Nordost, West/Südwest, Süd). Four teams were promoted to the 2. Bundesliga. At the beginning these were the four division champions, but later the champions of the Nord and Nordost division had to compete in a promotion play-off while one runner-up from the South or West division was promoted additionally.
[modifica] 2000 - 2007/08
Since 2000 there are only two Regionalliga divisions left (North and South), the champions and runners-up are promoted to the 2. Bundesliga.
[modifica] La riforma del 2008
In summer 2006 the German Football Association decided to establish a further nationwide league at the third level of the German football league system replacing the Regionalliga. This 3. Bundesliga will consist of 20 competing teams that will qualify at the 2007/08 Regionalliga season. At the most four reserve teams of professional clubs will be allowed to compete in this league. The champion and the runner-up will be promoted to the 2. Bundesliga. The third team will have to play a play-off match against the third-last of the 2. Bundesliga.
The Regionalliga is planned to continue as fourth level of the league system divided into three divisions (Nord/Nordost, West/Südwest, Süd), but this will not be finally decided until 2007.

League structure has shifted frequently and typically reflects the degree of participation in the sport in various parts of the country. In the early 90's, changes were driven by the reunification of Germany and the subsequent intregration of the national leagues of East and West Germany. All these levels are interconnected by way of promotion and relegation. The next diagram shows how this works for the first five levels. Note that the actual number of clubs being promoted and relegated below the Regionalliga level is frequently subject to change by the German Football Association.

[modifica] The German Democratic Republic football league system
From 1949 until 1991 East Germany had its own football league system. It had its own nationwide league called Oberliga that existed through the whole GDR history and since 1954 consisted of 14 teams, whose two worst-placed were relegated to the Liga, that was introduced in 1950. Following the resolution of the five federal states the five old Landesliga divisions were replaced by 15 Berzirksliga divisions at the third level of the league system. But already 1955 there was a new change in the system as the meanwhile three Liga divisions were merged into the nationwide I. Liga and the other former Liga teams played at the II. Liga, now at the third level. 1962 the I. Liga was once more divided into two divisions and the II. Liga was abandoned. 1971 the Liga was divided into five Divisions (and for that reason was now similar to the Landesliga of the 1940's). The five division champions played a qualification round by league mode. Since 1984 it consisted of two divisions, whose champions were directly promoted, again.
Below the Bezirksliga there were (descending) Bezirksklasse, Kreisliga and at the lowest level several Kreisklasse divisions as they actually are today.
