The People's State of Reuss (German: Volksstaat Reuß) was a short-lived state in what is now Thuringia. The state was formed on 4 April 1919 after the reigning princes of the two Reuss principalities abdicated and elections were held in both states.[1] The People's State of Reuss had a non-contiguous area of 1,143 square kilometers, 211,324 inhabitants (1919) and was divided into three districts.

It united with six other small states to form Thuringia, a member state of the Weimar Republic, on 1 May 1920.
