In Germany ...
- A one may only be married to one partner at a time. ✓ Correct answer
- B one can have multiple spouses at the same time.
- C one may not remarry if one has been married once.
- D a woman may not remarry if her husband has died.
Explanation
German law recognizes only monogamous marriage, so a person may be married to just one partner at a time. After divorce or the death of a spouse, remarrying is allowed.
Tips
- One partner at a time is the rule, having multiple spouses is not permitted.
- Widowhood and divorce never block remarriage, that restriction does not exist in German law.
