Two state colours, three stripes and a bear.
The State Emblems Act describes the stripe sequence as red-white-red. The outer red stripes are narrower than the white centre: each occupies one fifth, while the centre occupies three fifths. Red appearing twice does not create a third state colour.
The white-red answer option names the two colours; it is not an instruction to draw the flag with only two equally wide stripes. Separate the colour names from the exact design when studying.
The other three answers
The extra colours in the other choices do not fit.
blue-white-red
Blue-white-red adds blue. Blue is not one of the Berlin state colours requested here.
green-white-red
Green-white-red adds green. Berlin’s Constitution names white and red for the flag.
black-gold
Black-gold is not the colour combination of Berlin’s state flag. Although the bear is black, that does not make black-gold the correct answer.
Not every visible colour belongs in the test answer.
The black bear and its red details are part of the flag design. The question asks for the named state colours, however, not a complete list of every colour visible in the picture. White-red is therefore correct despite the black bear.
The flag carries the heraldic figure without the surrounding shield. It is therefore not simply the complete state coat of arms placed on an arbitrary background. The additional AI images on this page are expressly colour reminders, not official patterns.
Article 5 · Flag and state colours · Constitution of Berlin ↗Berlin: white-red, with the bear on the flag.
For this choice, remember the two colour names.
