Leben in Deutschland Test — Saarland
Free practice for the German citizenship test, with the 10 BAMF state-specific questions for Saarland.
What's specific to Saarland
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 Saarland's pool — the same as the real BAMF Einbürgerungstest. The 30 general questions you'll see are the same across Germany.
Saarland lies in the south-west of Germany, borders France and Luxembourg, and is the smallest state apart from the three city-states. The state parliament is the Landtag des Saarlandes, 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 Saarland; they are drawn from the BAMF's pool of 10 questions for this state.
