No. Why scrap it for one questionable answer?

Hey, I upset the whole German Government by asking a question about one of the questions on their "integration "quiz". (The one people have to take to get their citizenship.)

"When was the treaty of Versailles signed?", MY answer "Which one? There were FIVE treaties of Versailles, THREE of them effecting Germany, and one the Holy Roman Empire, which was....GERMANY".

Did not make them scrap the test.

Just see it as a "debate starter".

Debate is great, but trying to find peoples answers among several dozen 'non -answers' is not easy.

Take the question, and debate it elsewhere maybe.

And yes, I can believe you upset the whole German Government....lol
