✓ Correct Answer
With a prison sentence of up to five years or a fine
The correct answer is: “with a prison sentence of up to five years or a fine”. National Socialism (1933–1945) led to millions of deaths, the systematic mass murder of Jews (Holocaust) and the Second World War. Remembering and coming to terms with this history is an integral part of German identity and democratic self-image. 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.
