After much controversy, Germany decided against a uniform citizenship examination (Der Spiegel):
In order to get a German passport, all immigrants have to pass a language exam, attend an "integration course," designed to provide newcomers with insight into the German constitution and values, and attend a citizenship ceremony at the end. As to whether immigrants have learned what it means to be German -- that will be up to the individual states to determine.Now what does it mean to be German?
* Explain the term "Israel's right to existence".
* If someone described the Holocaust as a myth or fairytale, how would you respond?
* Explain the term "freedom of opinion and the press"
These above and 97 other questions a foreigner has to answer satisfactorily to prove he/she is a German before geting a German citizenship as proposed by the German state of Hesse.
You can take this test to see whether you are worthy of a German citizenship.
Update: Suggested answers for the Hesse citizenship test.
