Quick explanation
The coat of arms of Berlin is image 4.
Why is this correct?
It shows a black bear with a red tongue and red claws on a white background.
Background
Every federal state has its own coat of arms. The coat of arms of Berlin shows a black bear with a red tongue and red claws on a white background. You can see it, for example, on public buildings, on state documents and on the state flag. Berlin is a city state in eastern Germany and lies in the middle of the state of Brandenburg. Around 3.9 million people live in Berlin.
Why are the other answers wrong?
The other images show other coats of arms that do not belong to Berlin. For the test it is worth looking closely at your own state’s coat of arms – this question appears for every state.
