What is the Bundeswehr?
- A the German police

- C a German citizens' initiative
- D the German army ✓ Correct answer
Explanation
The Bundeswehr is Germany’s federal armed forces responsible for national defense and international missions. It is not a police force, a port, or a citizen initiative.
Tips
- Look for the keyword “Bundes-” indicating a federal institution and connect it with defense/military responsibilities.
- Eliminate options that are clearly civilian: police (internal security), harbor/port (infrastructure), citizen initiative (civil society group).
- Recall that Germany’s military is a unified federal force established post‑WWII under the Basic Law with parliamentary oversight.
