History of Denmark
Historical periods, social development and key events.
Prepare for the Indfødsretsprøven with a clear 45-question format guide, original practice, current-affairs review, Danish-values practice, past-paper links and official SIRI sources. The official test is in Danish, so use the Danish version for realistic language practice.
The Indfødsretsprøven contains 45 multiple-choice questions in 45 minutes. The official structure is 35 questions within SIRI’s study-material scope, 5 current-affairs questions and 5 Danish-values questions.
Passing requires at least 36 correct overall and at least 4 correct out of the 5 Danish-values questions. A high overall score does not override the values-section requirement.
