Why is this answer correct?
The Federal Cross of Merit is the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany and is awarded for special achievements in these fields. The Federal Eagle is the national coat of arms and not an award; the "Patriotic Order of Merit" and the title "Hero of the GDR" were awards of the GDR.
The Federal Cross of Merit is the Federal Republic's award, not the Federal Eagle.
