Translation
The Federal Republic of Germany has a three-tier administrative structure. What is the name of the lowest political level?
- A City Councils
- B District Administrators
- C Municipalities ✓ Correct answer
- D District Offices
Explanation
Germany's three tier structure runs from the federal level through the states down to the municipalities, which form the lowest political level. City councils and district administrators are offices within that level, not the level itself.
Tips
- Bund, Länder, Gemeinden, municipalities are the lowest of the three tiers.
- City councils and administrators are roles inside a municipality, not a separate level.
