The 2nd Bundesliga is the Second Division of professional football in Germany. It is below the Bundesliga in the German football league system.1974 marked the introduction of the second tier of the Bundesliga. Forty clubs, divided into two leagues (North and South), competed for promotion into the Bundesliga. 1981 saw the introduction of a single 2nd Bundesliga of 20 teams. In the 1991–1992 season, the former East German clubs participated as well. This was managed by returning to a two-tier system (with 12 teams in each league). The 1992-93 season was a momentous one, with 24 teams competing in a single league. Since 1994–95, there have been 18 teams in the second division. The most successful team was SC Fortuna Köln (1,376 points from a possible 2,910).
