Danish citizenship and exclusivity 

The US citizenship test is almost entirely about politics and law, with a bit of history and geography sprinkled in

By contrast, the new Danish test seems to be more cultural and historical and even Danes (part of the test) find it hard

Of course, it’s in Danish and there is a language component to the test which is expected of any sovereign nation with a single language majority

But the message is very plainly more about integration

@troubleMoney Most citizens here would also likely fail the test here. But ours isn’t that niche yet ;)

@cypnk one that might trip a lot of people up is "how long is there between general elections"

Anyone immigrating here 5 or so years ago could easily assume "about 20 minutes"
