- a19251925Correct answer
- b19551955
- c19211921
- d19451945
Why?
Because Ödenburg (Sopron) stayed with Hungary after a referendum, the province needed a new capital. At first the provincial government was based temporarily in Bad Sauerbrunn; in 1925 the provincial parliament made Eisenstadt the provincial capital.

Our own practice questions on the content of the official learning material “Mein Österreich” and the federal states’ learning materials. They are not the real exam questions – those are not published – and we have not copied wording from the materials. Every question was answered a second time, independently, and checked against public sources. The English translation and the explanations were made with AI; in the exam the questions are asked in German. Not an official service: no connection with the Federal Ministry of the Interior or the offices of the state governments.
