✓ Correct Answer
nationwide strikes and a popular uprising
The correct answer is: "nationwide strikes and a popular uprising." The reunification of Germany on October 3, 1990 ended the decades-long division into the Federal Republic and the GDR. Since then, German Unity Day has been a national holiday and a symbol of freedom, peace and self-determination. This question is part of the official naturalization test “Living in Germany” from the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) and is a prerequisite for German citizenship.
