The community's name is pronounced the same way as the German name for Bavaria ("Bayern"), although it is spelt differently. This is most likely derived from the old way of spelling Bavaria in German ("Baiern").

The constituent communities of Antholing, Berganger and Netterndorf are to be found within Baiern, as is the Jugenddorf Piusheim ("Youth Village of Piusheim").

Geography

Baiern lies in the Munich region. It includes one traditional rural land unit – Gemarkung in German – also called Baiern.

History

Baiern belonged to the Rentamt of Munich and the Court of Swabia of the Electorate of Bavaria. It was also the seat of a captaincy (Hauptmannschaft). The Weihenstephan Benedictine Monastery was until secularization in 1803 an important landlord in the community. With the municipal edict in 1818 came what is today the community of Baiern.

The painter Edgar Ende spent the last years of his life in a former schoolhouse in Netterndorf. He died there on 27 December 1965 and was buried at the graveyard in Antholing.

Population development

The community's land area was home to 986 inhabitants in 1970, 1048 in 1987 and 1402 in 2000.

Politics

The community's tax revenue in 1999, converted into euros, was €349,000, of which €29,000 was from business taxes.

Mayor

The community's mayor (Bürgermeister) is Josef Zistl (Wählergemeinschaft Einigkeit – may be translated as Voters' Community "Unity").

Economy and infrastructure

In 1998, the fields of agriculture and forestry employed no workers on the social insurance contribution rolls. In industry it was 68 and in trade and transport none. In other fields of work there were 152. Also, 345 people on the aforesaid rolls worked from their homes. There were nine processing businesses. There were six businesses in contracting. Furthermore, in 1999, there were 61 agricultural businesses with a total productive land area of 1 546 ha, of which 466 ha was cropland and the other 1 078 ha was meadowland.

Education

In 1999, the following institutions could be found in Baiern:

gollark: No, Richard, it's 'Linux', not 'GNU/Linux'. The most important contributions that the FSF made to Linux were the creation of the GPL and the GCC compiler. Those are fine and inspired products. GCC is a monumental achievement and has earned you, RMS, and the Free Software Foundation countless kudos and much appreciation.Following are some reasons for you to mull over, including some already answered in your FAQ.One guy, Linus Torvalds, used GCC to make his operating system (yes, Linux is an OS -- more on this later). He named it 'Linux' with a little help from his friends. Why doesn't he call it GNU/Linux? Because he wrote it, with more help from his friends, not you. You named your stuff, I named my stuff -- including the software I wrote using GCC -- and Linus named his stuff. The proper name is Linux because Linus Torvalds says so. Linus has spoken. Accept his authority. To do otherwise is to become a nag. You don't want to be known as a nag, do you?(An operating system) != (a distribution). Linux is an operating system. By my definition, an operating system is that software which provides and limits access to hardware resources on a computer. That definition applies whereever you see Linux in use. However, Linux is usually distributed with a collection of utilities and applications to make it easily configurable as a desktop system, a server, a development box, or a graphics workstation, or whatever the user needs. In such a configuration, we have a Linux (based) distribution. Therein lies your strongest argument for the unwieldy title 'GNU/Linux' (when said bundled software is largely from the FSF). Go bug the distribution makers on that one. Take your beef to Red Hat, Mandrake, and Slackware. At least there you have an argument. Linux alone is an operating system that can be used in various applications without any GNU software whatsoever. Embedded applications come to mind as an obvious example.
gollark: Oh, wait, better idea.
gollark: Hey, I *said* (GNU[+/])Linux, isn't that good enough for you, Stallman?!
gollark: Yep!
gollark: Also, though this is more personal preference, (GNU[+/])Linux (distributions) has (have):- a package manager useful for general use (the windows store is not really this)- a usable shell (yes, I'm aware you can use WSL, but it's not very integrated with everything else)- lower resource use- a nicer UI (well, the option for one; AFAIK Windows does not allow as much customization)
