"The situation"

Translation: Die Lage

[ben_duder]

"Die Situation" is a valid translation.

In addition to "die Lage" and "die Situation" there seems to be also a valid word "die Lagesituation" which also translates as "the situation" :)

Would die Lage mean a physical situation, an abstract situation or both?
