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.

BERLIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 9: Josef Schuster at the Commemorative event on the 85th anniversary for the night of the pogrom in 1938 in the synagogue Beth Zion on November 9, 2023 in Berlin, Germany. On November 9-10, 1938, Nazi-led mobs ransacked synagogues and other Jewish establishments across Germany. This year's anniversary is being commemorated with the fresh and horrific memory of the October 7 incursions by Hamas militants into Israel, in which 1,400 people were killed in the worst one-day loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust.
