Sample of a German "Einbuergerungstest" (citizenship test) made available at one of Berlin's Volkshochschule (VHS) September 22, 2008, during the first test session in the capital. Germany on September 1 introduced a test foreigners will be required to take if they want to become German citizens, but critics have slammed the move as discriminatory. Officials came up with 310 questions to determine whether an applicant knows enough about the country's political system, history and cultural heritage to earn a German passport.
