Leben in Deutschland Test — Bremen
Free practice for the German citizenship test, with the 10 BAMF state-specific questions for Bremen.
What's specific to Bremen
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 Bremen's pool — the same as the real BAMF Einbürgerungstest. The 30 general questions you'll see are the same across Germany.
The state of Bremen is made up of two cities, Bremen and Bremerhaven, both surrounded by Lower Saxony; it is the smallest state by area and by population. Bremen is a city-state (Stadtstaat): its parliament is the Bremische Bürgerschaft, elected for 4 years, and the head of government has the title "Präsident des Senats" ("Präsidentin des Senats" for a woman). In the official test, 3 of the 33 questions are about Bremen; they are drawn from the BAMF's pool of 10 questions for this state.
