Leben in Deutschland Test — Brandenburg
Free practice for the German citizenship test, with the 10 BAMF state-specific questions for Brandenburg.
What's specific to Brandenburg
Each Bundesland has a 10-question pool of state-specific questions about its parliament, capital, geography, and government. When you take the mock test, 3 of the 33 questions are randomly drawn from Brandenburg's pool — the same as the real BAMF Einbürgerungstest. The 30 general questions you'll see are the same across Germany.
Brandenburg lies in the east of Germany, borders Poland and completely surrounds Berlin. The state parliament is the Landtag Brandenburg, elected for 5 years, and the head of government has the title "Ministerpräsident" ("Ministerpräsidentin" for a woman). In the official test, 3 of the 33 questions are about Brandenburg; they are drawn from the BAMF's pool of 10 questions for this state.
