Independent study resource, not a BAMF website. Translations are study aids; the exam is in German.
Quick explanation
The state flag of Brandenburg is red and white.
Why is this correct?
The state flag is red at the top and white at the bottom, with the state coat of arms with the red eagle in the centre.
Background
Besides the federal flag, every federal state has its own flag. The state flag is red at the top and white at the bottom, with the state coat of arms with the red eagle in the centre. The state flag flies, for example, at the state parliament, ministries and on public buildings on holidays. The coat of arms of Brandenburg shows a red eagle on a silver (white) background – the Brandenburg eagle.
Why are the other answers wrong?
The other colour combinations do not belong to Brandenburg: blue, white and red is the flag of Schleswig-Holstein; green, white and red is the flag of North Rhine-Westphalia; black and yellow is not the flag of any state.
Memory tip
Brandenburg: red and white.
