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!

The great Wurst War

Angelo Merte
if your Ausländeramt is anything like mine, you dann wait for half a year before you get an appointment to even submit your application 😅
Glückwunsch! For me, a study app helped a lot with the memorization. I used “Leben in Deutschland Test” from the Google Play Store.
Well done, congrats! Kinda weird you gotta know stuff most Germans don’t know to become German. I mean I think Helmut Kohl was in power when the wall fell but I guess Willi Brandt layed the ground work. But who signed something specific? Honestly no Idea even if I went to a German high school.
Tell me how you behave if you sit next to a stranger on a bus when a double seat becomes free and I’ll tell you whether you’ve properly integrated lol
