- B an eastern state and a western state.
- C 16 cantons.
- D federal government, states, and municipalities. ✓ Correct answer
Explanation
Today's Germany is structured into the federal level, the 16 states, and the municipalities. Occupation zones and an East-West split belong to the postwar past, and cantons are a Swiss term, not a German one.
Tips
- Federal, states, municipalities, that is the three tier structure of modern Germany.
- Occupation zones and cantons belong to history or another country, not today's Germany.
