Why is the message of the olive branch on Germania's sword complex?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it shows both strength and peace together
The sword is normally associated with defence, struggle and the power to resist threats, while the olive branch traditionally represents peace and reconciliation. Their combination creates a complex message: the nation should be strong enough to defend itself but may also seek peace. Option A captures this tension. The other choices have no connection with the established political symbolism of the image.
