Like it says, I took the Einbürgerungstest this past weekend. The questions are a mix of things that feel pretty obvious (which war lasted from 1939-1945) and things that require memorization (Which chancellor was responsible for the Ostverträge?). In a lot of ways, it feels like another language exam: if you understand German well enough to understand the questions, you can probably pass.

We officially had an hour, but I was done within 8 minutes, and I wasn’t the first :).

One step closer to citizenship!

    When that stuff was first in the papers my parents probably still went to primary lol

    Yeah, but newspapers don’t just write about what happened today, they often to contextualize with history. So while It’s not first in the papers anymore it still is something you can learn from them.

    Besides, half (or so) of the test isn’t history but easy questions about our political system. That’s also stuff you should have learned in school.
