state level
The political or administrative level of a federal state within a federal country. It lies between the federal level (national) and the municipal level (local).
Das neue Gesetz muss erst auf Landesebene beschlossen werden.
The new law must first be passed at the state level.
The word is made up of 'Landes-' (genitive of 'das Land', the state/country) and 'die Ebene' (the level). The 's' is a linking s that connects two nouns. So it literally means 'the level of the state/country'.
Die Zuständigkeit liegt auf der Landesebene.
Responsibility lies at the state level.
The word 'Ebene' (level) is often used to describe political or organizational levels. If you recognize this pattern, you will also understand words like 'Bundesebene' (federal/national level) or 'Kommunalebene' (municipal/local level).
Entscheidungen auf Bundesebene haben Auswirkungen auf die Landesebene.
Decisions at the federal level have effects on the state level.
This noun is almost always used with the preposition 'auf' (on/at) to express belonging to this administrative level. So you say 'auf Landesebene' (at the state level).
Auf Landesebene werden die Bildungspläne für die Schulen erstellt.
At the state level, the curricula for schools are developed.
This word is typical of political and administrative language in federal countries such as Germany or Austria. It describes the middle political level.
