I got bored after the first five questions, since they didn't involve beer, Gypsy killing or Oktoberfest serving girls.

My husband was German, being one via insemination is good enough for me.

27/33. I'm surprised I got the government questions right. It was the geography questions (well, minus the border question) that I got wrong. That, plus I called the states Free and didn't know about the union of the parties in 1946. Other than that, it was a very easy test.

Sorry. I half cheated using my German Langenscheidt Compact German Dictionary. The other half I used from memory... my German is very rusty.

Anyway, I am currently reading this book which just informed me that Hitler would giggle at times. Did you people know that? I can't defend him anymore knowing that he was a "giggler". Slightly disillusioned, there.

Crap, my parents came from Germany and I got 9 wrong. I guess that means no Muslim Frauleins for this lederhosen wearing boy.

And here's a stupid question. How does one add those spoiler [+] codes to a post??

German questions:
1. Who ist der master race?

A. The Germans.

2. If Train A leaves Eigelstrufeur carrying 650 Jews and is travelling at 35 kilometers per hour and Train B departs Zohlerstrussel carrying 340 gypsies and is travelling at 32 kilometers per hour, why the fuck won't Helga...

Foreign tourists love Germany and Frankfurt Airport in Frankfurt is the nation's busiest airport. Lufthansa is the largest operated airline in that country and it fly 100 destinations across Germany and 5 continents.

Lufthansa ended its flights from Frankfurt to Manila last March 30. Only KLM is the sole European airline that flies from Amsterdam to Manila.

The answer to every question is "Invade Poland."
Except for question 21. The answer to question 21 is "Rosa Parks."

33 out of 33!! Yay me! I would also like to add that the last time I was in Germany I felt like I was in fucking Turkey. There are so many immigrants, legal and non, that I was shocked. I was also shocked to learn of the rising backlash against immigrants and the rising movement of the Skinheads. Some politicans are also not to fond of the influx of Turkish and Middle Eastern peeps.

Another German Quiz:

I. Germany and the Germans

I missed 4 questions and I guessed on a lot of them. Bernard is correct about the common sense answers being the right answer.

I got the flag colors right!

Since I posted a US Civics Quiz last week in honor of Independence Day (which several OT Europeans, Canadians, and Australians took and did quite well on), here's a chance to see how well we all fare on a similar quiz based on the history, politics, and civics of another country.

The following is a test that has been proposed for those applying to become German citizens.
